Color choices

Capuchin monkeys can begin with warm tan or deep brown fur, leaving the faces and chests in lighter cream shades. Color the large fallen log next with layered browns and darker bark lines. Use golden beige for the nuts and shells, then choose fresh greens for the leaves and grass. A darker background edge can help the pale faces and small nut pieces stand out.

Nut Shell Patterns

Color the nut shells with alternating shade patterns, then repeat a favorite color sequence across sections of the log’s bark.
