I developed this solution using jQuery for simplicity. When the change event of the <select> element is triggered, the value of the <option> elements is assigned to the <textarea> element whose id attribute is resultTextArea.
$( ".target" ).change(function() {
$('#resultTextArea').css('color', this.value);
});.container {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
flex-direction: column;
}<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="container">
Select Color:
<select class="target">
<option>Choose a Color</option>
<option id="btnRed" value="red">Red</option>
<option id="btnBlue" value="blue">Blue</option>
<option id="btnGreen" value="green">Green</option>
</select>
<textarea id="resultTextArea" style="width: 25%; height: 200px;"></textarea>

I have developed a solution using plain JavaScript in the solution below. The SetColor() method is called when the <select> element's onchange event is triggered; the value of the selected element in the <select> element is assigned to the color style of the <textarea> element.
function SetColor()
{
var value = document.getElementById("selectElement").value;
var textareaElement = document.getElementById("resultTextArea");
textareaElement.style.color = value;
}.container {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
flex-direction: column;
}<div class="container">
Select Color:
<select id="selectElement" onchange="SetColor()">
<option>Choose a Color</option>
<option id="btnRed" value="red">Red</option>
<option id="btnBlue" value="blue">Blue</option>
<option id="btnGreen" value="green">Green</option>
</select>
<textarea id="resultTextArea" style="width: 25%; height: 200px;"></textarea>
