Digital example: Johnny sowing a brown seed bed in blue clothes beside green seedlings.

1. Green: leaves and seedlings
2. Red: apples and chimney
3. Blue: clothing and shoulder bag
4. Brown: soil, wood and seed bag
5. Peach: face and hands

Color foliage, grass and the small seedlings green.
Make the apples red and repeat red on the chimney.
Color the shirt, trousers and shoulder bag blue.
Use brown for soil, bed frame, fence, cabin, hat, hair, boots, tool and seed bag.
Color exposed skin peach; leave sky, hills, clouds and smoke white.

Each dark furrow should remain visible in the brown bed, with green seedlings clearly separated behind it.
