Pigeon Drinking Water from a Bowl Colouring Page

A pigeon leans forward to drink from a shallow bowl of water. Its bill reaches the water while its feet stay firmly on the ground. The rounded bowl and small ripples make a peaceful drinking scene, with the pigeon's curved neck and folded wing clearly visible. How to colour: Use light blue-grey for the body, slate grey for the head and charcoal for the wing bars. Add a little emerald green and violet on the neck, coral pink on the feet and dark grey on the bill. Colour the bowl terracotta orange with a darker rust-coloured rim. Make the water pale sky blue, leaving narrow white gaps between ripple lines, and use sandy tan for the ground. Apply gentle horizontal strokes to the water and curved strokes around the bowl. Finish with soft grey shading under the bird and brown beneath the bowl to give both shapes weight.
