Majestic Peacock's Grand Fan Display

Fun Fact

Male peacocks are famous for their stunning tail feathers, which can grow up to 6 feet long! They use this incredible, fan-shaped display to attract a mate and sometimes to scare away predators. Each 'eye' spot on the feathers is called an ocellus.

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Feather Finery - Use a spectrum of blues, greens, and golds for the magnificent tail feathers. Layer colors gently to create depth and shimmer, making each 'eye' spot stand out.
2. 2🖍️ Eye Spot Sparkle - Make the 'eye' spots truly pop with contrasting, vibrant colors like deep sapphire blue, emerald green, and even a touch of purple or yellow for the center. Use fine tips for detail.
3. 3✨ Textured Groundwork - For the ground and surrounding trees, use a mix of earthy tones such as browns, greens, and grays. Add short, varied strokes to create realistic textures for bark, leaves, and soil.
4. 4🌈 Body Brilliance - Color the peacock's body with rich, iridescent blues and greens, paying close attention to the smooth transitions of color on its neck and crest. Consider subtle highlights for a glossy effect.
