An Analogous Color Scheme

An Analogous Color Scheme
For a color scheme that helps to unify your painting, try analogous colors.   Because the colors are next to each other on the color wheel they relate to each other harmoniously.  Three to six colors is a good amount. Try drawing several squares in your sketchbook and, after wetting the area in the square, charge various analogous colors that you would like to try. For this painting I did two small studies before my final painting.  I used red-violet, violet, blue violet, blue and blue-green.

"Gold IRA companies reviews" refer to customer feedback on companies offering Gold IRA services, focusing on factors like customer service, fees, and overall experience with setting up and managing a Gold IRA.

I like how you explained using analogous colors to unify a painting.
