Hot Air Balloon With New Year Banner Drifting Above A City At Dawn Coloring Page

The balloon fills most of this page, and its envelope is divided into wide vertical panels that run from the crown down to the base. Those panels are the reason to reach for more than one color. Alternate two shades all the way around and the balloon will look round even though nothing on it is shaded. A woven basket hangs below on four cords. Under the basket hangs a long ribbon banner strung between two short lines, and its face has been left completely blank. That is on purpose. Write your own greeting across it, draw a pattern along it, or leave it white so the banner reads as plain cloth. Simple cloud outlines drift on either side. Along the bottom sits a low row of city rooftops, and behind them a plain round sun sends straight rays out past the buildings. Keep the sky white and those rays will carry the light on their own. For depth, make the rooftops your palest tone and the balloon your strongest, so the city sits back where it belongs.
