As you color this cheerful village scene, imagine the happy chatter of the villagers around the fire. Start by using a bright yellow to depict the warm light of the flames, then use a mix of browns, greens and grays to capture the texture of the huts made of sticks and leaves. For the figures of the villagers, you may use pops of color here and there - vibrant oranges, pinks or blues - to bring life to the image and make the onlooker feel welcome to this homely village. Add some fun to the picture and children playing by using a range of warm and cool colors, from yellows to purples. Finally, use darker tones of browns and beiges to suggest the smell of the food cooking on the fire, creating a vivid and inviting image.
