How many shades of red does a painter need? Just one.
More.
I do love the tension created by adjacency of similar colors and similar values. It makes me happy.
Here’s an example of a palette of reds that I find especially visually satisfying. Perylene Red, Quinacridone Magenta, Cadmium Red, and Cadmium Orange.
