Colored pencils are excellent for detailing the dog's fur and the tree bark. Fine-tip markers can define contours and smaller leaves on the ground. Broader markers or crayons work well for larger background areas.
Start by outlining the dog and tree gently. Use a single shade for the larger areas of the tree trunk. Keep the dog's main body in one or two solid colors before attempting details.
Apply directional strokes to create realistic fur texture on the German Shepherd. Use cross-hatching or stippling on the tree bark for depth. Experiment with light sources to cast subtle shadows.

A German Shepherd is depicted from the chest up, positioned on the right side of a prominent, thick tree trunk. Its head is turned towards the viewer, with one ear perked up and the other slightly relaxed. Its muzzle is visible, along with its curious eyes. The dog's front paws are just visible at the base of the trunk. The forest floor has minimal ground cover, featuring a few scattered leaves and small, simple pebbles near the tree's base. Behind the tree, indistinct shapes suggest more distant trees.
