How do I choose colors for my abstract painting?

Choosing colors for abstract painting can be subjective, but consider your emotions and the mood you want to convey.

Should I stick to a color palette or can I mix different colors?

You can do both! A limited palette creates harmony, while mixing colors can add excitement and depth.

What are some color combinations that work well together?

Some popular combinations include blue and orange, purple and yellow, or complementary colors for contrast.

How do I know if my colors are balanced?

Step back and look at your painting from a distance. Balance can be achieved through even distribution and contrast.

Any tips for experimenting with colors?

Try using a color wheel for inspiration, or create small swatches to see how colors interact before applying them.
