About this picture
This skeleton looks more cheerful than creepy, caught mid-wave next to a grinning jack-o'-lantern. Its ribcage is drawn as individual curved bones, but they're all linked as one region, so a single tap colors the whole ribcage at once instead of needing to click every gap between the ribs. It's a good pick for a colorist who wants to try white or pale gray for the bones against a bold background color.

Coloring ideas
- Color the bones a classic bright white or try an unexpected color like pale blue for a more playful look.
- Give the jack-o'-lantern beside it warm orange and yellow tones so it's the one big pop of color on the page.
- Color the rib cage bones individually in slightly different shades for a more detailed, textured effect.
- Leave the background plain so the skeleton and pumpkin stay the clear focus of the page.
Learning and creativity connection
The many individual rib bones lined up in a row are good practice for repetitive, evenly spaced coloring strokes, similar to the rhythm used in handwriting lines of letters.
