Color choices
This crab peeks out from beneath a curved piece of driftwood resting above a shallow tide pool. Give the rounded shell and claws a bold tone first, then use a lighter shade for the many jointed legs beneath it. The shells and starfish scattered near the water suit soft pastels, while the driftwood and surrounding rocks can take warm, weathered browns.
Compare the crab’s texture and the wood’s grain
Color the crab’s shell first, then use a different palette for the wood and the surrounding water.
