This playful puppy is off to a great start in life, resting on a bed of straw and happily gnawing on a bone. His devoted mother watches on, her expression filled with a mixture of love and worry. The pup is full of energy and curiosity, his tail joyfully wagging away.
For the puppy, a blend of browns and tans would be best, starting from a light tan on the muzzle and gradually darkening to a deep chocolate brown near the tail. The pup's mother would provide an opposing color to provide contrast - use a range of cool blues and blues-greens. The straw, meanwhile, could take on a range of earthy greens and yellows to bring the scene to life. Lastly, the bone should be a warm, creamy white, so as to stand out against the other elements.
