Follow the palette.
Sometimes color is simply where the eye begins.
Use these groupings to narrow what you are seeing, then let the artist, material and work itself do the rest.
Warm
Amber, rust, ochre, coral and sun-warmed earth tones.
Cool
Blue, green, slate and quieter oceanic ranges.
Neutral
Stone, sand, paper, wood, soft earth and restrained tonal work.
Monochrome
Work built around value, form, line and light rather than broad color.
Earth
Grounded pigments and material palettes drawn toward brown, green, mineral and organic tones.
High Color
Work that uses saturation deliberately and can carry a room from a distance.
These are ways to begin looking, not departments in the header.
