Karabas-Barabas coloring page

An ancient book with text and coloring pages. In the middle: a puppet surrounded by a bearded man, woman with a flower, fox and cat looking at it with admiration.
This old and yellowed book contains an illustration of a wooden puppet that captures the viewer's attention. Its long nose and outstretched arms suggest a sincere invitation to explore the pages of the book. Around the puppet, four characters can be seen: a wise, elderly man holding a staff, a woman wearing a flower in her hair, a fox, and a cat. All the figures appear to be admiring the puppet, emphasizing its importance. To bring this scene to life, I suggest using bright colors to fill the illustration. The background can be painted in either a light or dark blue to represent a sky or nighttime sky. The puppet can be painted in various shades of brown to convey its wooden texture, with yellow and orange as details for its clothing. The characters can be painted in hues of blues, greens, yellows, and reds, with touches of other colors for the details in their clothes and hair. Choosing lighter or pastel shades will give the painting a softer feel. Finally, for the background details, adding a few stars or trees will create a magical atmosphere.
