Color choices
A father washes the family dog in a tub in the backyard. Color the dog’s soapy fur in warm golden brown, leaving the bubbles around it a light, airy white. The metal tub holding the dog looks good in cool grey, while the hose coiled nearby can take a bold contrasting color. Fill the towel and ball resting on the grass with bright, bold shades.
Compare man and dog
Color the man’s shirt first, then use a different shade for the dog’s fur and surrounding water droplets.
