Color choices

Crocodile can take deep olive tones across the ridged back, with lighter green along the snout and contrasting amber eyes. Color the broad water first with pale blue, then use deeper blue around the ripples for contrast. Try leafy greens for the reeds and lily pads, warm brown cattails, and soft gray or cream on the long-legged bird.

River Ripple Pattern

Color the winding ripples with alternating pale and deep shades. Repeat selected colors among the reeds, lily pads, and distant bushes to connect the river scene.
