This is probably a very broad question but how did you learn to use such color palettes in your work? You've mastered using different red and blue tones... and some greens and purples too that I can see... I try to use those colors for highlights and warm tones but they never fit. Your work is always mesmorizing to me and you give me big goals of my own :) hope to buy a peice of your work some day if not all of them! That are available of course^.^ best of wishes!
If you find your colors aren’t working together, perhaps you could try messing with the saturation of one color in relation to the other, i.e. lower the saturation of blue (dull it down with gray) if the orange is very strong, and vice versa. They’re naturally complementary, so they’ll contrast no matter what, basically. I’d also check what the value is doing, I’ve always believed that value is very important in the process of coloring. Some tips for balancing your color choices: subtlety helps when you’re implementing a lot of different colors/hues, and boldness helps when your color choices are more limited. These are just my tips gathered from my own experiences, they’re not official rules or anything like that, so make of that what you will. Hope that helps, and thank you!
