3. Easy Easter bunny coloring tutorial for kids
If you are a beginner in coloring and have no idea on choosing colors, let’s read this part. We will suggest some tips that you can apply for your coloring pages.
3.1. Choose the Right Coloring Tools
Let’s start with some coloring tools you should prepare before the coloring session. Don’t ignore this step because it will decide the final look of your artwork.
There are some notes while choosing mediums you need to be aware of.
- Crayons: They create soft texture thanks to the wax base. It is easy to blend lightly and break easily but you can feel waxy and uneven. Because they are safe and easy to use, they are perfect for kids, and less precise detail pictures.
- Colored pencils: They are great for gradients and shading technique. Because of fine tips, colored pencils are precise and controllable for detailed images. However, you need to put more pressure on deep colors and be patient for large areas.
- Markers: They are ink-based colors which can create vibrant colors and smooth coverage. Contrary to colored pencils, markers are fast and efficient for covering large areas.
3.2. Pick an appealing color palette
I can say it is the most important part in coloring . level. Because the color palette is the soul of the image, it will decide the vibe of the whole artwork.
And do you know that, the way you choose colors can reveal about yourself too? To be more specific, it can show your preference, personality and the way you see the world.
To color the Easter Bunny pages, you have a hundred ways and there is no right or wrong. However, if you are lost, let me suggest some color palette you can apply.
- Traditional Easter Colors: Soft pastels like baby pink, light blue, lavender, and yellow.
- Natural Bunny Colors: Shades of brown, gray, and white for a realistic look.
- Spring Vibes: Green for grass, bright flowers, and blue skies to add a festive touch.
3.3. Use Blending and Shading Techniques
Obviously, you can fill in all the gaps with the chosen color palette and complete the coloring page. However, what can you do more to make your artwork deep and soulful?
My answer is to try the blending and shading techniques that are not too hard. If you are beginners, this is for you because I will tell you the most basic rule.
However, don’t forget to keep practicing, it’s the key to level up your skill.
- Layer Colors: It just simply starts with a light base and gradually adds darker shades. For example, you start with baby pink and then add coral pink. If you marker, remember to wait for the first layer to dry.
- Blend: Blending is to smoothen the colors to create a good transition. You can use blending pencils, cotton swab, tissue paper or even your finger.
3.4. Highlight and Shadow
Highlight and shadow is an advanced technique but it does level up your image. Let’s pay attention to my instruction and practice to master it.
- Step 1: Deciding the light source is so significant in succeeding this technique. For the starter, just pick a random corner of your coloring page as the light source.
- The brighter side is where the light reaches, you need to highlight it.
- In contrast, the side where is away from the light needs to be shadow with dark color.
- Step 2: For the side facing the light, you use the lighter color where the light hits. You even can leave areas white if you want. Then, you blend the lighter color into the darker one with the blending technique I mentioned above.
- Step 3: For the darker area, you add a dark color to mimic the shadow. Black may seem too harsh, you can try dark blues, purples… to make a more natural look.
3.5. Add Texture to Make the Bunny Look Realistic
To add final touch, you can add texture to its fur. Let’s use colored pencils and draw short, light strokes to mimic the bunny fur.
Don’t forget to add background to your Easter Bunny coloring pages. You can choose some themes such as a simple theme with blue sky color, gradient background.
4. Why do people love the Easter bunny?
Individuals, children, and families alike have loved the Easter bunny and all that comes with him for centuries. Here are just some of the reasons why people love the Easter bunny.
4.1. He’s mysterious and magical
When mentioning the Easter bunny, the first word that pops up in my mind is magic. It’s a small animal that, during the night before Easter Sunday, brings children baskets full of goodies and hides eggs.
You might think the Easter bunny is similar to Santa Claus. Because he also yearly visits kids in the middle of the night and brings them gifts that they want. So why do I say the Easter bunny is magic and mysterious, right?
Think about it, you know a lot about Santa Claus. For example, we know he got married, works with elves and reindeer. We even know he lives at the North Pole, and has songs played and sung about him.
What’s about his outlook, I believe you do know well about him. He has a big belly and a long, fluffy, white beard, and dresses in a red suit. The word which is frequently out of his mouth is “ho ho ho.”
But where do we start with the Easter bunny? There’s no place to start because so little we know about him. That’s how mysterious and magical the Easter bunny is.
No one is known to have ever seen him, so not a single person knows what he looks like. We don’t even really know if the Easter bunny is a “him.”
No one knows where he lives, who works with him. Or how he decides to leave the goodies that he does for the specific children he has in mind.
We know Santa gets a list and checks it twice, looking to see who’s been naughty or nice. But the Easter bunny? Yes, there is a lot to speculate and wonder about regarding the Easter bunny’s mystery and magic.
4.2. He brings fun and joy
People love Easter bunny and like coloring Easter Bunny coloring pages not only because of his mystery. They love Easter bunnies because they believe they bring joy and funs.
Easter traditions like dying eggs and going on a hunt to find them and receiving baskets full of goodies. They are all founded on the idea of a magic rabbit who brings joy and fun every year.
The Easter holiday is one that brings families, children, and individuals together. It’s a time of merriment, festivities, and fun. Something that might not have been as feasible without the Easter bunny and the belief that people have in him.
Some may be tempted to believe that without hunting for hidden eggs, there wouldn’t be any fun. Or that without receiving goodies, there is no joy to be had.
But at the end of the day, people may come to realize that the simple belief in the Easter bunny himself is the source of that fun and joy.
