Bountiful Raspberry Bush: A Ladybug's Rest

Fun Fact

Did you know raspberries are not technically berries? They are an "aggregate fruit," made up of many tiny individual fruits called drupelets, each with its own seed!

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Berry Blending - Use shades of red, pink, and even a touch of purple to give the raspberries a realistic, juicy look. Try blending colors for smooth transitions.
2. 2🖍️ Leafy Layers - Vary your greens for the leaves. Use lighter greens for new growth and darker, richer greens for older leaves, adding shadows under overlapping foliage.
3. 3✨ Thorny Textures - For the thorny stems, use a fine-tipped colored pencil in a light brown or grey. Add small, sharp strokes to create the prickly texture without overwhelming the stem.
4. 4🌈 Ladybug Details - Make the ladybug pop! Use bright red for its shell and black for its spots and head. A tiny white highlight on its shell can make it look shiny.
