Two subjects of about the same height side by side, so neither one carries the sheet alone and a child can stop after the tree if the unicorn looks hard. The mane runs in long waves while the tree is all repeated scallops, which means the two halves want a different hand. This Christmas unicorn drawing suits six and up. More: the unicorn collection.
