Golden swallowtail above green broad leaves and four terracotta pots; smaller herbs and flowers remain white. — A digital example of this practice; uncolored areas are intentional.

1. Golden wings
2. Terracotta pots
3. Green herb leaves

Color the central wing panels gold; leave the body, outer spots, scalloped edge bands and tail white.
Color the outside and rims of all four pots terracotta; leave their interiors white.
Color the broad veined leaves of the largest plant green. Leave its flowers and all three smaller herbs white.

Check four terracotta pots. Keep stems, trowel, wall, butterfly body and small wingtip cells white.
