How the colors work
Oat rules this painting: it covers 49%, close to half of it.
Dusty rose is the accent: only 2% of the painting, but enough to lift the rest.
Its values run from 4 (mole) to 8 (oat), on a scale from 0 (black) to 10 (white): a middle range, neither hard nor hazy.
It leans cool: cool colors cover 42%, warm ones 2%.
Dusty rose and celadon sit on opposite sides of the color wheel, so each makes the other look stronger (see complementary colors).
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.
