Coloring tips for this monkey printable
- Use one brown for the main fur and a lighter cream or beige for the face, belly, and inner ears.
- Make the banana stand out with golden yellow on the peel and a pale yellow on the inside parts.
- Add a slightly darker brown along the curled tail and around the paws to give the monkey more shape.
- Keep the eyes bright and simple, then add a soft peach or tan around the smile for a gentle cartoon look.
- If you use markers, start with the larger body areas first and leave the small tufted hair and fingers for the end.
