1. Light and dark green
2. Yellow bands
3. Brown branch

Color the head, legs, tail and alternating bands light green. Use darker green on the leaf, keeping its central stem lighter.
Fill the remaining broad body bands yellow without changing their boundaries.
Color the branch brown with strokes along its length; leave the eye white around the pupil.

The tail spiral, body bands and leaf veins should all remain readable.
