Fawn’s Leafy Naptime with Forest Friends

A young deer snuggles down in a bed of crisp leaves, her eyes closed and her legs tucked warmly beneath her. To her left, a cheeky squirrel clutches an acorn, bushy tail curled high in the air, while on the right, a round little hedgehog nibbles happily on a snack. Their small faces look cheerful and busy, each critter bringing a sprinkle of fun to the peaceful forest floor.

Above their heads, a handful of leaves twirl and flutter on the breeze, bringing a hint of autumn magic to the scene. Every leaf spills over with big, wiggly edges, waiting for splashes of color. Soft, curving lines give the animals gentle shapes, making each detail easy for little artists’ hands to follow.
