Which will work better in your design, a limited or wide range of hues?
I believe a limited range of hues will work better in my design because it is not meant to be bright and vibrant. Using a wide range of hues may cause the design to become too busy. A limited range of hues will allow me to unify the different elements of my composition together by playing around with tints, tones, and shades.
What happens when your composition is dominated by earth colors and chromatic grays? How does it change when an intense color is added?
When the composition is dominated by grays it results in subtlety and vibrance, when dominated by earth colors an analogous harmony is created that can accentuate gestural energy and organic shapes. A piece changes when intense color is added by providing an elegant balance between subdued and louder colors.
What are the differences in use of color in Andrew Wyeth's Wind from the Sea and Richard Diebenkorn's Interior with Book?
In Andrew Wyeths Wind from the Sea he uses sepia toned colors that evoke a slowness and serenity. He uses these brown and green colors as an appropriate choice for the countryside landscape he is depicting. These colors are very different from the ones you see in Richard Diebenkorn's Interior with Book that is dominated by yellows, oranges, and blues. These two paintings have similar sceneries yet completely different feelings because of the difference in colors.
