Studio Visit #5 The Color Palettes Ive Chosen

Hello there

Welcome Back!

Thank you for visitng me

This is going to be a short post, as I wanted to share the colors I’ve chosen for my painting. These charts come from the Munsell Color Theory System. During my training at the Atelier, we spent a full day creating twelve color charts. The specific charts I’ve chosen are the Oranges (including browns) for her skin tone, the Blues and Reds for the shawl, and the Yellow Ochre 1.5 and 3 for both her skin tone and shawl.

The Munsell Color System is a standardized method for describing colors based on three properties: hue, value, and chroma. Developed by Albert H. Munsell, this system uses a three-dimensional model to define colors with precision.

First, I’ll need to create the grayscale in order to mix the colors I need. See you soon!
