- Use a blue gradient for the pond, lighter near the shore.

- Keep white highlights in the dinosaur's eyes for a lively expression.
- Lightly shade the pond's edge with brown and add small grass strokes.
Fun Facts

- Some dinosaurs rested by squatting, just like modern birds. Scientists discovered this by studying dinosaur fossils.
- Fish in ponds could see dinosaurs above water! Due to light refraction, fish eyes can see about 97 degrees above the water's surface.
- The largest dinosaur was longer than three school buses lined up, while the smallest was only the size of a pigeon.
- Both dinosaurs and fish are vertebrates with spines - something they share with us humans!
