Choosing a Color Palette

I like to find a connection or meaning in every element I use to design so I started with color history and I tried to find and create color schemes that gave the emotion and energy the breed gives. Being known as massive, loyal, and affectionate animals I began to search for a scheme of colors that said just that! Below are some color schemes I came up with followed by some history and background on the colors! 

To review, the personality of the Mastiff: 

• The personality isn't like it used to be. The mastiff is no longer a warrior. It's a long time since he retired from those kind of activities. Nowadays he is a very relaxed and normally harmless dog, who loves his family. He is very dependent on being close to his owners, and appreciates (and demands!) being cuddled with. Strangers are not very popular with mastiffs. The average mastiff is friendly and patience with children, but it is of course important that the children are friendly with the mastiff in order to establish a good relationship between them.
