Color choices

A swallowtail butterfly rests beneath a broad, leafy tree near a smooth boulder. Yellow the wings boldly, striping them black and touching a hint of blue near the long trailing tails. Fill the tree canopy with full green and warm the trunk into brown. Mute the boulder and grass below into cool, quiet tones.

Color the butterfly’s wings first, then use a darker shade for the tree trunk and surrounding foliage.
