For example, if you are coloring a picture of a dog, it may look very basic, but a picture of a cow might look completely different because of all the different shades of color that could be used. By creating a basic color scheme, and then having the kids start off by mixing different colors together, it will be much easier for them to figure out how to mix these colors together and to find their own style. Once they have an idea of how to use color, they will be able to figure out where their colors belong, and where they want the colors to go.

Once they have a basic picture they can start to fill in the rest of the picture with different shapes that will make the picture unique and interesting.
