Color choices
An alligator suns itself on a muddy riverbank. Color its long body in warm olive green, with a paler cream tone across the underside and jaw. Try earthy browns for the mud and scattered rocks beneath it, and fresh greens for the cattails and grass lining the bank. Keep the lily pad floating on the water nearby in a cooler green to contrast with the muddy shore.
Color the lily pads
Color the lily pads using a light shade, then contrast them with darker tones for the surrounding mud and reeds.
