Beauty And The Beast Dancing In A Ballroom

The beast stands on the left in a jacket worn open over a waistcoat, and the three round buttons down that waistcoat are the first easy targets on the sheet. His face is broad and friendly, with a wide grin, two small round ears and a tuft of fur under his chin. On the right his partner wears a strapless gown with a sweetheart neckline, her hair swept up into a coiled bun, one small earring beside her cheek. Their hands meet in the middle of the page, which is the only place the two figures touch. Everything below her waist is skirt. It falls in long unbroken panels all the way to the bottom edge, and those panels are wide enough that a young child can fill them with one confident sweep of a crayon while an older one can shade each fold separately. Nothing sits behind the pair. The empty paper keeps the focus on the two shapes and stops the sheet from turning busy, so this one suits a child who likes big areas more than fiddly detail. Try giving the jacket and the gown matching shades and see how the pair reads as a couple.
