COLOR STUDY

Since Green is my favorite color, I am starting with that color.
I do love the photo above with the green walls and blue/gray chairs in front of it. Cooler colors, but the idea could be that the colors be warmed or adjusted. Since my goal is to accomplish my own palette of custom tropical colors, I am studying the possibility of the combinations.

This is a color study.
Looking to make a story board of my color palette for my next house. Of course getting it first would be a good idea, I couln't wait to start thinking of the colors and the intensity can be adjusted to sun exposure and how the house relates to its surroundings.
I have put together a collection of photos I saved off the internet and saved files. I found some color choices I keep going back to, and who can argue with Matisse as far as color choices!
I do love the lime green, and it happens to be 'hot' this coming year. But that is not why I chose it, it is GREEN that is my favorite color anyway. Then If I want to update it, I think I will add glazes over it with a slight tint to wake up or tone it down if I change my mind or pick another green. Wouldn't that be fun to add layers and have it end up over time with this patina? That is worth a try!
It depends on how deep and rich I want to get with color. Matisse and Kandinsky have some deeper colors to study as well as another choice for more value in the colors.
