Charcoal gorilla with light gray face, hands and feet holding a green leaf. — A digital color suggestion, not a photograph of a printed result. Open the original line drawing to print and try your own colors.

1. Charcoal fur
2. Light gray face and limbs
3. Green leaf

Use charcoal lightly on the fur so its outlines remain visible.
Color the face, inner ear, hands and feet light gray. Work carefully around fingers.
Color the held leaf green. Leave the supporting rock and paper white.

The leaf should remain separate from the fingers and nose.
