Squirrel Paints a Forest Masterpiece

In a sunlit forest clearing, a cheerful squirrel sits by his easel, paintbrush in paw. He’s carefully painting the beautiful woods around him, with tall trees, curly bushes, and a winding stream. Birds sing overhead as the squirrel picks colors from his paint palette, hoping to capture every detail of his favorite place. Bring this woodland artist’s world to life by choosing just the right shades for the scene—and maybe even add your own creative touches to his painting within the coloring page!

FUN FACT

A squirrel will often flick its tail over its head to signal to a predator, like a snake, that the squirrel has seen it and is ready to escape.

COLORING TIPS

Try blending two shades of green for the trees and bushes to make them look more lively. Use gentle strokes for the squirrel’s fluffy tail and add a splash of blue or purple to the paint palette to make it extra colorful. Consider filling the sky with a soft gradient of blue and white to give the scene a gentle, outdoor feel.
