What are some coloring tips for this page?

• Create Depth: Use your darkest blues (#1D3557) sparingly in the deepest cracks and underwater parts of the iceberg to make it look three-dimensional.
• Blend the Ice: Layer the #A8DADC and #F8F9FA to show how light plays across the ice. The top surfaces can be lighter, while vertical faces can hold more blue.
• Reflective Water: Use horizontal strokes with the #457B9D and #A8DADC to mimic calm, reflective water. Add subtle streaks of the iceberg's colors to show reflection.
• Soft Sky: Keep the sky (#E3F2FD) light and smooth, using gentle, even pressure. You can add minimal shading near the horizon with a touch of #A8DADC.
• Experiment: While blues and whites are classic, don't be afraid to add a hint of lavender #CDB4DB or pale pink #FFC8DD to a sunrise or sunset sky for a magical touch.
