Digital example: Brown mother kangaroo nuzzling a tan joey between sage plants.

1. Brown — mother
2. Light tan — joey and soft details
3. Sage — side plants
4. White — open ground

Color the mother's body, limbs and tail brown; use dark brown on both noses.
Fill the joey light tan. Use pale peach-tan inside both animals' ears and around the mother's muzzle and eye.
Color both side plants and the long grass at their bases sage green.
Leave other grass, stones, claws, eye glints and the background white.

Keep the touching noses distinct and the joey lighter than the mother.
