Acorn watercolor test
Three-tile background test for the watercolor acorn illustration: white, moss, and dark.
A quick visual sanity check for the watercolor acorn illustration (/images/watercolor-acorn-trimmed.png). The mockup tiles the same image across three backgrounds: pure white, pale moss #DDE6D0, and near-black #2A332A. The point is to see how the trimmed edges read against the color tokens used elsewhere on the site, both light and dark mode contexts.
The acorn is a candidate decorative element for headers or empty states. This test answers a simple question: does the edge halo from PNG trimming survive on each background, or does it ring around the illustration on the dark tile.
