Gentle Manatee Swims at Sunset Bay

As the sun begins to set, a gentle manatee glides through the calm coastal waters, its peaceful shape drifting just below the surface. The sky turns warm with the fading sunlight, and the quiet waves ripple around this friendly sea giant. Imagine what colors the sky and waves might take on as you bring this serene sunset moment to life. Will your manatee be the classic gray, or something even more magical?

FUN FACT

A manatee has a very sensitive snout covered in stiff whiskers called vibrissae, which help it feel and find food.

COLORING TIPS

Try blending two blues for the water by lightly overlapping light and dark shades. Use a soft gray for the manatee and gently shade its belly lighter. Create a glowing sunset by blending oranges, pinks, and yellows in the sky. Add a hint of color to the water's surface to reflect the sunset.
