Orchid Elegance in a Tropical Grove coloring page
Slim orchid stems are elegantly blossomed in the middle of fluffy tropical palms and make a quiet grove full of exotics.
This coloring page takes you to a green tropical forest where there are tall palm fronds and wide banana leaves and provide a lush background of groups of fragile orchids. Smooth and intertwined petals, as well as a central lip are sketched to each orchid flower, giving you the chance to experiment bridled pastels, bold pastels- blush pink and creamy lavender, or sapphires and jewel-like hues; magentas and deep violet. The slender stems naturally bend towards the sky and are lightly sprinkled with buds that would flower later, with softly arching leaves giving a drawing of sweeping lines to big, tropical greens or perhaps even turquoise surprises. The ferns and trailing vines that interlace between orchids give the composition fine lines of fronds and curled tendrils and welcome shading or stippled texture. Some of the orchids lay desiccated on the forest floor, the petals embracing a forest of mossy details which you can fill in with garden browns and chartreuse. Go with a serene color scheme that captures the sunrise glow of a rainforest or select a bold clash of vivid hues with deep green foliage, but either way this scene will prompt you to juxtapose the light curves of the flora with the hefty outlines of the foliage--making a little tropical island on the paper your own.
