Color choices

Wavy stripes can begin with broad bands in teal and navy, followed by narrower spaces in aqua. Use warm coral or yellow in selected curves to contrast with the cool palette. Repeat colors along neighboring bends for a flowing rhythm, or alternate light and dark shades where the lines narrow, converge, and sweep across the page.

Flowing Color Sequence

Choose a repeating color sequence and carry it through the curving bands. Reverse the sequence near the central loop for a contrasting pattern.
