Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Feather Detail - Use very fine-tipped pencils to highlight each individual feather on the doves' wings and bodies, layering light grays, whites, and subtle hints of blue or lavender for realism.
2. 2🖍️ Dynamic Wings - To show motion, try blending very soft, light colors on the wing edges, almost as if they are shimmering. Consider a slightly darker shade underneath the wings to create depth.
3. 3✨ Background Blur - For the 'soft blur' effect, use muted greens and browns for the foliage. Apply color lightly and blend with a tortillon or cotton swab to create a gentle, out-of-focus look behind the doves.
4. 4🌈 Symbolic Colors - While doves are often white, feel free to use colors that symbolize peace and serenity for you. Pale blues, gentle purples, or even soft metallic accents could add a unique, ethereal touch to this beautiful scene.
