Aww I love this one, the color palette is chosen very nicely. I mean, there are just two main colors, which makes this peace look simple, yet sophisticated <3

And I would love a hair like that as well! Even though I love my ginger colored hair now xD

What hair color you have?

Thanks so much! Limited palettes can be a lot of fun!
Oh ginger hair is beautiful, I love warm tones for hair and ginger in particular is gorgeous
Mine is blonde/brown, just my natural colour.

;-; Looking wonderful Angel! The flowers really did come out great! They added to the piece and made it so wonderful. TT_TT And the color combo is honestly just perfect for this piece! You have such a wonderful concept of picking and choosing colors. T-T I'm so jealous! This is fantastic!

;-; I seriously doubt it was a lucky accident, I think it's your skill. :'D You just have a great eye for color combos, it makes me so jealous. Even with your OC piece. T_T Did you take any lessons for that? I can't remember if you told me, but you seem to have great understanding of colors and how to choose ones that go so well with each other.

teal-clover In reply to peacheyi [2016-11-18 19:39:55 +0000 UTC]

Well thank you! Both pictures are a results of my love of mixing purples with watercolour, so I like to find out different combinations that work for that. Both of their colours schemes are somewhat based on that.
I've never taken any lessons for art, (outside of school) but I've done some reading on colour theory. It's helpful for mixing paints as well, just looking at the colour wheels and learning what colours are complimentary, I've found it really useful.

peacheyi In reply to teal-clover [2016-11-19 02:10:25 +0000 UTC]

Oh, did you mention this before, but is purple your favorite color? :'DΒ 


I really should look up color theory. >-< I mean, I know basics, but I want to be able to compose color compositions much better. Maybe it'll be a good start for me. You just have so much talent in that. T-T

It's not my favourite colour, (probably turquoise/cyan is) but I feel it's such a versatile colour, as it's inbetween the warm of red and the cool of blue it works so well with so many colours. I think it might be my favourite to paint with for that reason.

I'm not sure I know much myself, just a little on what colours mix well/or can be used to dull down colours, I'm sure there's lot I don't know. The colour wheel is useful for understand which colours can blend into one another naturally as well though.
As always you are too kind, but thank you!

Woah, she's really lovely ! I love her expression and the color is well-done ! <3
(her ear is a little too big tho.. this is the only flaw I've found in this piece xD)
Keep it up <3
