Analogous color:

This painting is done by an analogous scheme based on the color blue. The story behind this painting is inspired during a hiking with the painter’s own family at Lake Mineral Wells. The color blue was use because the painter wishes to capture the cool breeze and cold feeling after a long day. This also show the mood of the painter when he was doing his painting.



Complementary color:
-         Colors that are opposite to each other on the color wheel, such as blue and orange. It is use to create a more energetic feeling. The high contrast creates a vibrant view especially during full saturation.

This painting is complete with 3 color which is the thalo blue, cadmium yellow and cadmium orange. This painting has not much of a meaning behind it but the usages of complementary color are quite obvious and are easy to see. The painter also use some white color just to make the yellow and orange more clear and fresh from each other.

Split-complementary color:
-         Have a main color and two color each side of the opposite color on the color wheel. These color are one hue and two space from its opposite. Mostly uses in presentation using a computer in order tom maintain high contrast and avoid fatigue.

A painting that is completed using color straight out of the color tube without adding any mixture. The colors are mostly in high intensity or high key value and thus create an abstract type of painting.
