a robin-inspired color palette
When trying to figure out what type bird this was, I discovered that the size of a robin's "red" breast and frame of gray feathers help communicate the bird's age and sex. Apparently, if a young male bird detects a large area of coloring on another male's chest, he'll know not to pick a fight.
Color is a powerful thing, my friends.

WHAT ARE THESE COLOR CODES? The “hex codes” above are provided as a courtesy for those customizing website colors or looking for general color inspiration. They are not based on paint or Pantone chips. Remember that ink on paper will never look the same as light on a screen. If you like a combination you see, we recommend saving the image and heading to your local hardware store to find paint chips that match. Digital colors will change depending on your phone/tablet/computer screen, so be sure to color match with real swatches. Also, I make up all the color names.
Happy Friday!
