Kangaroo coloring page

Kangaroos are native to Australia and the largest surviving marsupial. 2011 saw 34.3 million in the country, up from 25.1 million in 2009.
This coloring page features a striking red kangaroo, standing upright and proud on an Australian plains in the midday sunshine. Its iconic tail curves up and over its muscular back, while its powerful hind legs hold it firmly in place. The kangaroo’s body is covered in a beautiful red fur that stands in stark contrast against the ochre earth and vibrant green grasses on the foreground. The sky is awash with a golden hue, and the majestic kangaroo looks out into the horizon, encapsulated by the vast australian outback. The colors used to bring this scene to life should be subtle but powerful. The background should make use of warm colors such as yellow and orange to signify the sun-soaked arid landscape, while the lush greens of the grasses will provide a sharp contrast. The iconic red of the kangaroo should be vibrant but not overpowering, and the browns and ochres of the ground will give it an impressive level of realism. Finally, a deep blue for the sky will bring a peaceful serenity to the scene.
