Color choices
A swan glides past reeds and irises growing at the water’s edge. Try a crisp white left mostly bare for the swan’s feathers, with a soft orange for its beak, then color the iris petals a rich purple and the cattail reeds a warm brown. Finish the distant hills behind the water in a hazy blue-gray.
Compare water and reeds
Color the water first, then use a warm brown for the reeds and irises around the lake.
