Rory After the Rain
Rory the rainbow has appeared just after a gentle shower, with hearts, stars, and raindrops gathered around the big curved bands. The round mandala layout gives you lots of joyful details to explore. You could give each rainbow band its usual color, or invent a rainbow with candy colors, jewel colors, or shades from your favorite outfit. Every tiny raindrop can have its own splash of blue.
Color a Bright Sky Pattern
For a classic rainbow, color the bands red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Try light blue for the raindrops and bright yellow for the stars. Pink or red hearts will pop against cooler colors. You might make some stars pale yellow and others orange for a glowing effect. Leave a few small spaces white, like little cloud highlights, or fill the background with soft blue to show the sky clearing.
How Rainbows Appear
A rainbow can appear when sunshine shines through tiny water drops in the air. The drops bend the light and separate it into different colors. That is why rainbows are often seen after rain, when the sun comes out again. A rainbow is actually a full circle, but people on the ground usually see only the curved top part. Rory’s colorful bands are a happy reminder of sunshine after a shower!
