Color choices

Op art butterfly wings can begin with bright yellow and orange across the broad curved bands. Use teal and violet in the spirals, with pink accents in the woven sections for contrast. Color the segmented body in softer green tones and make the antennae a deeper shade. Finish the eyes and flowing background lines with bold contrasting hues.

Mirror Wing Patterns

Color matching sections on the wings with related hues. Switch to contrasting colors for the spirals and curved background bands.
