Wildebeest on Windy Rock

A strong wildebeest balances on a tall rock, his curved horns pointing like crescent moons. His beard hangs in a shaggy fringe, and the hair on his shoulders ripples in stripes. He looks calm and steady, with solid legs and a flicky tail that drapes behind him.

Big, round clouds stack across the sky like soft pillows. Lines on the rocks show cracks and bumps where his hooves grip. He peers ahead with a steady gaze, as if counting the slow, rolling clouds. The whole scene feels quiet and grand, like the savanna holding its breath.

Fun Fact!

This "birth-quake" is a survival strategy for wildebeest; with so many calves born at once, predators can't possibly eat them all.

Coloring Tips

1 Use tan for his coat, then add short dashes of darker brown along the stripes to make the fur look shaggy.
2 Shade the horns with gray at the base and lighter gray at the tips for a smooth curve.
3 Mix sandy yellows and browns on the rocks; leave thin white lines to show cracks.
4 Color the sky light blue and brush a soft gray along cloud bottoms for puffy depth.
