Cute Camel

Meet this cheerful young camel, a gentle desert traveller with one rounded hump, long sturdy legs, broad two-toed feet, a softly curved neck and fluffy tufts on its head and tail. Children can colour the coat sandy beige, golden tan, caramel or warm brown, then use a lighter cream shade on the muzzle, chest and belly. Try pink or peach inside the ears, dark brown for the feet and tail tip, and black or deep brown for the nose. Colour the dunes golden yellow or pale orange, the palm bush and desert grass in fresh or olive green, the flowers in bright colours, the stones warm grey or brown, and the clouds pale blue. Work slowly inside the bold lines, leave tiny white eye highlights, and add sunshine, birds, a water pool or distant pyramids in the open spaces.
