Wheelbarrow Full Of Pumpkins Coloring Page

The wheel is the best part of this drawing. It sits large at the front with eight spokes running out from a small hub, and it asks for more patience than anything else on the page, which makes the sheet a good step up for a child who has outgrown single shape pictures. Behind it the barrow is built from long plank lines, and the tray is heaped with round pumpkins, each carrying its own stem. No ground is drawn underneath, so the whole thing sits on clean white paper with no shadow to work around. Two materials meet here, and treating them differently is what will make the picture look finished. Wood wants a dry, streaky pass that follows the direction of the planks. The pumpkins want the opposite, a smooth even fill with the pressure eased off near the top of each one. If the spokes feel too narrow for a marker, run a pencil through them and save the marker for the tray. Leaving the wheel entirely white also works and keeps the pile as the focus.
