A golden lion with a chestnut mane

Use two warm colors to separate the lion's broad body from its jagged mane. Keep the open page white.

A walking golden lion with a chestnut mane and tail tuft, a white beard and a white background. — A digital example of this practice; uncolored areas are intentional.

1. Golden ochre — face, body, legs and tail
2. Chestnut brown — mane and tail tuft

Color the face, body, all four legs and the thin tail golden ochre. Leave the small beard below the muzzle white.
Fill the pointed mane and the tuft at the end of the tail with chestnut brown. Follow each point slowly so the mane stays separate from the face.

The brown mane should stand out against the golden face and body. Check that the four legs remain clear and the small beard and background stay white.
