This sweet scene depicts a girl in a forest, arm in arm with a young Native American boy. The boy has nothing but a piece of animal skin draped around his waist, and a paintbrush in his hand. Both figures look endearingly happy and content in their peaceful surroundings.
To start coloring this scene, I recommend choosing a warm yet gentle palette. For the two figures, muted earth tones would be ideal to highlight the naturalness and peacefulness of the moment. A soft brown could be a great option for her clothing and golden yellow for his, and for their skin tones, pink and beige tones. The surrounding trees and bushes could be painted with a range of green hues ranging from light green to darker and deeper ones for the shadows. The sky could be done with a delicate blue. The shadows and highlights should play with the shades of the chosen colors. To make the dramatic movements of the stream stand out from the rest of the page, use a mix of deep blues and turquoise. Finally, pay attention to the details like adding some petals of flowers and leaves.
