Whitetail Deer Leaping Over a Fallen Log Coloring Page

Two objects, one action, and a lot of empty paper. The deer is caught in mid leap with its front legs folded back under its chest and its hind legs stretched out behind, body stretched flat and level. Nothing touches the ground. Below it lies the log it is clearing, a heavy fallen trunk running the full width of the sheet with the cut end facing right, and that end shows a fine spiral of growth rings that is the most detailed thing on the page. Long grain lines run down the bark with a few knots and a broken branch stub sticking up. Grass and small leaves gather along the base. The deer itself is left almost entirely plain, with a branching rack, a clear eye and smooth unmarked flanks, so it needs little more than one good tone. Spend the time on the log instead. Ringing the cut end in a few shifting browns turns a simple prop into the best part of the picture.
