Ah, finally! It's been a really long time since I played around with color! Understanding color mood is very important for any level of painting--from simple shapes, to incredibly complex rendered scenes. As humans we react in very distinct ways when presented with different colors--like red instilling a sense of danger!
Monochromatic palettes are very simple, and therefore give a simple read. The orange yellow I chose for the first bust conveys warmth, and an appealing deep richness to me--very much bringing honey to mind. The purple blue of the third bust feels jazzy to me, like there is a vibe or energy to it. It's all very interesting--my actual working files are full of notes I can use when presented with more complex subject matter/styles--and I think I might move into complimentary and analogous studies next!
