Colour scheme (Exercise F)

Prompt: Pick out five hues from the image and write a VERY SHORT write up on the hues, what mood are they conveying, if they are working well…

The earthy brown and green hues bring a cozy and relaxing mood, which is very fitting for this image of parfaits taken at a homey cafe. The muted, natural tones are also suitable for food-related imagery while giving a modern vibe, and the brighter orange-yellow colour adds just enough liveliness to the image and whets our appetites.

Even though this cafe is known for their green tea desserts, I like that the green only takes up a small portion of the colour scheme, because it further emphasises its effect as the accent colour. The range of light to dark brown shades do a great job in encapsulating the warm mood and complementing the accent matcha green colour.
