What's In This Picture

This page features a large, anthropomorphic strawberry that fills the center of the frame. You will find two big, round eyes that give the berry a sweet personality. Below the eyes is a wide, happy mouth that makes the fruit look like it is ready to tell a joke. Scattered across the strawberry's body are many small, oval-shaped seeds that add texture to the drawing for you to color individually.

At the very top, the strawberry wears a cap of several pointed leaves and a short, sturdy stem. The lines are thick and clean, making it very easy to stay within the borders while you work on the different sections of this friendly fruit character. The large open spaces in the eyes and the face allow for plenty of room to experiment with different shades and highlights.

Coloring Tips

Since this is a classic strawberry, you might want to start with a vibrant ruby red or a bright pink for the main body. For the seeds, a light yellow or even a golden metallic marker can make them pop against the darker background. If you want a more natural look, try using a lighter red near the center and a darker shade toward the edges to give the berry some roundness.

The leaves and stem look best in various shades of green, like lime or forest green, to show off the fresh garden look. If you want to make the eyes look extra shiny, try leaving a tiny bit of white space near the top of the pupils or use a white gel pen for a highlight. You can also add a soft pink glow to the cheeks to make the strawberry look even more bashful and cute.

Did You Know?

Did you know that strawberries are the only fruit that wear their seeds on the outside? A single strawberry can have about 200 tiny seeds! Even though we call them berries, scientists actually consider them a multiple fruit because they grow from a flower with many ovaries. They are also members of the rose family, which is why they smell so sweet when they are ripe.

Try This!

After you finish coloring your berry, try drawing a little bowl or a garden fence around it to give it a home. You could even draw some smaller fruit friends like a happy blueberry or a smiling orange next to it. Once your artwork is complete, you can cut it out and tape it to the fridge to remind everyone to eat their healthy snacks throughout the day.
