How the colors work
Slate leads with 22% of the painting, and oat follows with 19%.
Khaki is the accent: only 4% of the painting, but enough to lift the rest.
Its values run from 3 (bark) to 8 (oat), on a scale from 0 (black) to 10 (white): a middle range, neither hard nor hazy.
Most of it is near-neutral (82% of these colors): grays, browns and creams that let the few real colors speak.
The same colors in gray
Each color beside its value, from light to dark. Painters check this to see the painting’s structure without its colors.
