Color Schemes




Monochromatic- Monochromatic colors are all colors of a single hue. Monochromatic color schemes are made up from a single base hue and extended using tints and shades. For my monochromatic olioboard I used a brown hue. It has a very comfortable and relaxed feel to it.

Analogous-Analogous colors are groups of three colors that are next to each other on the color wheel, with one being the dominant color, which tends to be a primary or secondary color, and one on either side of the color. For my olioboard I used Green and Blue shades. It is a very bright room.

    2. Split Contemporary- The split-complementary color scheme is a variation of the complementary color scheme. In addition to the base color, it uses the two colors adjacent to its complement. This color scheme has the same strong visual contrast as the complementary color scheme, but has less tension.For my Split Contemporary olioboard I used the colors Red Blue and Green, it has a bright look.

    4. Triadic- Triadic color scheme. Examples: The triadic color scheme uses three colors equally spaced around the color wheel. This scheme is popular among artists because it offers strong visual contrast while retaining balance, and color richness. For my olioboard i used the colors green, purple, and orange it has a relaxed calm feel.
