in art colors can be used to create illusions. when used wrong the illusions can contradict your work and turn a good throwie into a shitty green throwie with a fugly purple outline.

first, warm and cool colors

warm colors like red, orange, yellow etc tend to pop forward and give a warm feel.

cool colors like blue, cyan and green can also help creat depth since they tend to appear closer to the wall than most colors. i like cool colors for backgrounds (in canvas art) if they're kept pretty simple.

neutral colors are colors like grey and brown. other colors can be more neutral if they have more grey and less colors. i like mixing greys with some grey'd out colors, it'll give you a color sceme without popping out too much and distracting from your peice.

when mixing colors just try to control the contrast, dont make an epileptic color sceme but make it interesting. i like to keep the colors pretty close to the same shade, i'll use some blues that are barely different to make a sceme in the fill.

now, color combinations

train yourself to see normal objects as colors. when a red objects gets brighter it often turns orange reather than pink. a green object turn green-yellow as it brightens too. look at a cloudy sky at night, or any night sky, it's rarely pitch black, there's an orang/brown tone from city lights and s**t in the air. if you ******** with bucketpaint dont be afraid to make your own shades.

brands of spraypaint like krylon carry a good variety, when you buy/rack some paint try to get different shades of the same colors. krylons got some nice bluescales if you can find them. dark blue with a light blue outline looks great, it barely catches the eye so it's perfect. black, cyan and white work well if you use them right

thats mostly just subtle colors tho. i never get tired of the classic black and white throwie. a good color sceme in the back can compliment a black and white letters very well too.

Blue and red, or anything with yellow.

I like light green, black and white too. Simply because those were colors for a crew I was in a while back, and I just got used to it.

its actually kinda science lmfao..
ight so..if u fill in with a dark color..like dark blue or anything like tht..u can actually make ur outlines white or yellow instead of black..it makes it look transparent and
original
shadow alot of the times looks also better when its gray not black
and fo fillins...use a transfer from like dark red to pink..or maybeh use
even anti colors..from purple to yellow..
its harder to pull off but looks pretty dope
so use transparent colors more

Dont use 2 colors just because you like them both. You need colors that are gonna collaborate together well. For example: green and red are disgusting together in a 2 tone piece. when it comes to fades use 2 colors that are going to fade well into each other. such as purple and black, or orange and a yellow orange.
