painting - using warm & cool colors

size 16" x 20" medium - "water based oil"

More details...
Colors can be devided in to Warm colors(orange, yellow, red, white) & Cool Colors(black, gray, blue, green, voilet)

This painting is based on real still-subject, not a photo. I replaced white parts of the subject with warm colors. And replaced dark parts with cool colors.

Example: Drapery was actually whitish-cream in color. I replaced it with warm colors.
Similarly, I used cool colors to represent shades between Drapery's folds .
