Values: The Most Important Aspect of Color In Your Landscape Painting

Values are the most important aspect of color, so it helps to focus on them while thinking of color. A good way of doing that is to use a muted limited palette. Today I’m using ivory black, cadmium red deep and cadmium yellow light. It’s a muted palette because of the black but it can be intense because of the cadmium red and yellow. The black acts as a blue and gives a muted aspect to the colors and helps us to understand grays. It also helps me to focus on value because of the limited colors.
