So what I mean when I talk about colors, tone and mood is really what the piece's feeling that it gives off. When you look at something like this, how does it make you feel?
Personally, I think it gives off a darker sort of feel just based on the colors being used. This sets the tone of the piece making it feel a bit drearier or darker. I am by no means saying that everyone might feel this when they see it, art is up to interpretation, so you don't necessarily have to see what I see at all.
What about this one?
I kind of get the feeling of comfort and beauty and I cna almost hear the music that the cello is producing! (btw this is from Ursi's blog where you can find other artwork by her)
Basically what I'm hinting at is the what the color scheme of the piece is. You can ustilise tools like:
To figure out what colors are near and/or alike to one another to make your piece have a certain feel.
Another way to do this is by actually deciding if you want to have your piece in black and white. Remember, black and white are colors too, and so they should not be left out when deciding what color schemes you feel like using in your piece. I used this when I made my piece (which I will post at the bottom after I finish all this jazz). When you decide how you want the mood to be then you can pick your colors and make your piece! (unless it is digital painting, you might want to choose your colors before hand--duh. With digital painting you can photo editing tools to change your mood and/or change the entire color scheme wiht the click of a button! Rock on computers!)
I hope this made sense, if it didn't, post a comment at the bottom and I can reword any points that don't make sense, and I leave you with one dose of epicosity (thank you tobuscus)
