Color choices

Cattle bodies can begin with warm browns, rust, charcoal, and cream. Use pale ivory for the horns and darker tones for hooves, noses, and ear details. Color the horses and saddles next, then choose muted greens and golds for grass and hills. Keep the dust clouds light so the herd stands out against the plains.

Dust Cloud Patterns

Color the dust clouds with a repeating sequence of pale tan and soft gray, leaving some spaces white to separate the moving cattle.

Printing tips

Cattle Drive Across the Plains Coloring Page has about 207 separate areas to color, a medium level of detail. Crayons work for the larger shapes, and colored pencils or fine markers help in the smaller spaces.
