Coloriage Lémur catta (3 sur 4)

The body is a soft grey, the face white with dark patches around those round eyes, and the tail of course alternates clean black and white. Keeping a steady edge between the tail's bands is good practice for the hand, while a little grey shadow in the body keeps it rounded. Color it however suits you.

À propos du Lémur catta

The Lémur catta lives only on the island of Madagascar and is easily known by the long tail marked with bold black-and-white rings, which it holds aloft as a flag to keep its troop together. Lemurs are sociable animals that live in groups, and on cool mornings they gather to sunbathe, sitting upright with arms outspread and faces turned to the sun in a pose that looks very much like quiet prayer.

That sun-greeting posture and the bright, wide-eyed face have made the Lémur catta a great favorite at zoos, where its lively, curious manner charms visitors of every age. It carries an easy, universal appeal with no difficult history attached, which makes it a cheerful and approachable subject to color.
