Pattern Parade: Happy Hippo Steps Out

This hippo stands tall and strong, with round ears perked up and gentle eyes scanning the scene. Bold zigzags, diamonds, and swirl shapes decorate every inch of her big body, turning her into a walking festival of patterns. Her snout stretches wide, covered in tiny dots and lines, like she’s ready to snuffle at something fun.

From nose to toes, even her legs wear neat bands of triangles and waves. Her sturdy feet press into the ground, each outlined with thick, bubbly lines, asking for bright colors. Every shape invites a new shade and every curve seems to giggle with possibility. This patterned hippo waits for your wildest, splashiest colors to bring her to life.
