Rhino Walking Past a Watering Hole Coloring Page

The rhino comes toward you at an angle, head low and one foreleg lifted mid stride, so the picture has motion in it rather than being a side on portrait. Its front horn is long and curves back, with a shorter second horn behind it, and both are drawn with fine lengthwise grooves. The real character sits in the hide. Deep creases run across the shoulder and around the tops of the legs, dividing the body into thick plates that overlap like armor, and each of those plates can take a slightly different value of the same gray or brown. That is the whole trick to this sheet. Vary one color across the plates instead of reaching for several. Each foot ends in three broad nails outlined separately. Below and to the left, a few loose lines mark the water at the edge of the hole, with small grass tufts scattered around the dry ground. There is no background beyond that, so the animal has the page to itself and the plate work stays the center of attention.
