- Color Rachel's long hair and robe as she cuddles the lamb, leaving the lamb's wool white and coloring only its ears and hooves.
- Give each brick of the round well a slightly different reddish brown, and finish with the two sheep grazing in the field.

- What do you think a day was like for Rachel as she cared for the flock?

Printing and coloring tips
- Print on A4 or Letter in portrait to keep the original proportions.
- Keep the finished version open beside you while you color.
- Use slightly heavier paper with water-based markers so the ink shows through less.
- Fill the large areas first and leave the small ones for later.
- The finished version is only a suggestion. Any colors you like will work.
