A young man, Ivan Tsarevich, stands triumphant over a fallen foe. Holding a curved blade in one hand, Ivan has stood against the power of the evil wizard Chernomor, and in a bold move, he even cut off Chernomor’s thick beard while the wicked magician was asleep. Ivan’s face expresses both strength and confidence while he stands over his enemy.
To color this image, I would suggest a muted, but bright color palette. The sky should be a soft blue, while the grass a gentle green. Ivan himself should be colored a slightly brighter tone, depicting his courage and strength, while Chernomor should be colored in a dull, dark blue-gray. The blade held in Ivan’s hand should be brightly polished, while Chernomor’s disheveled beard should be yellowish-brown and wiry, befitting of its wild state. Overall, the colors should give a sense of brightness, both in Ivan’s courage and in the optimistic outcome of the clash between good and evil.
