Analogous Color Scheme

Analogous color scheme - the use of colors that are next to each other on the color wheel

Monet - Water Lilies, Green Reflection, Left Part

 Monet uses a combination of dark blues, greens, light greens, and yellows: all of which are next to one another on the color wheel. This creates a very calming effect which is similar to the feelings of the actual content of the work.
