Color choices

This group of crabs explores a coastal tide pool scattered with rocks, shells and strands of seaweed. Try a bright orange or red for each crab’s rounded body and a slightly darker shade for its claws. Color the rocks in cool grays, and use soft blues for the shallow tide pool water pooling between them. Give the scattered shells and the starfish warm, contrasting colors to help them stand out against the rocks.

Color the crabs first

Color all seven crabs with the same palette before moving to the seaweed and shells nearby.
