Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Bark Details - Use varying shades of brown, grey, and even a touch of green or mossy yellow to show the texture and age of the ancient tree's gnarled bark.
2. 2🖍️ Gentle Guardian - For the wolf-like guardian, think soft, natural tones like warm greys, creamy whites, or earthy browns. Add a gentle blush to its cheeks for a kind expression.
3. 3✨ Cozy Companions - Give the small forest animals like squirrels and birds their own unique, natural colors. Use subtle shading to make them look soft and cuddly in their safe haven.
4. 4🌈 Forest Glow - Imagine the light filtering through the leaves. Use soft yellows, greens, and blues for the background foliage, creating a peaceful, magical atmosphere around the guardian and tree.
