Colours: Green

In the “Colours” series continues. We have started with the colour red. Today, let’s look at the colour green. Green is a secondary colour (yellow+blue=green). The objective of this article is to increase readers’ sensibility to the 3 dimensions of colour (hue, value and chroma). The more you see the differences between the different shades of the same colour, the more selective you will become when choosing colours that flatter your complexion, your eyes, your lips and your hair colour. With each photograph, I will indicate the Colour Type (i.e. the code name for a specific combination of the 3 colour dimensions) the shade belongs to. The photographs are in no particular order.

Can you see what shades are warm (yellow based) and what shades are cool (blue based) and what shades are neutral (or neutral-cool or neutral-warm)? Can you see what shades are muted and what shades are bright? What shade of green suits YOU best? What shade of red suits your sibling best?
