This is my "Limited Pallet Painting" Where I pre-picked 8 colors (including white) and ONLY used those colors to mix to create this picture (Digital painting ftw!). It actually turned out pretty well, but now I know I need to pick a wider contrast of colors (too many of these colors were medium to light hues) so that it would look better. An example: Ultramarine blue rather than a light blue. Cuz Then I can make black/darker colors noooooo problem!
Also the proportions are wrong (hands), but I did that on purpose to focus on the cuteness (and I was busy trying to get mixing hues right).
Did I mention I painted this picture from memory? I messed up on the outfit, but I got the eyes right!

The simple colors really add to it in my opinion.

You should! It can be fun and frustrating at the same time. It teaches you alot about color theory/mixing.
