Owl Color Palette: What colors should I use?
For coloring an owl, I recommend using rich earthy tones such as deep brown for the body to showcase its natural habitat. You could complement this with warm yellow for the eyes to give them a bright, engaging look. Adding splashes of sapphire blue and forest green will provide a beautiful contrast against the browns. Lastly, a touch of soft cream or white can enhance the feathers, adding depth and texture to your owl's appearance.

-
Symbolism and Mood: Choose colors that reflect the owl's role in various cultures or its symbolic meanings (wisdom, mystery, night). Darker, muted colors can evoke a nocturnal atmosphere, while lighter, vibrant hues can give a more whimsical feel.
