This piece is called The Art of Mickey Mouse. He uses the colors of orange, purple, turquoise, and then the colors of mickey. He used the triadic color scheme because orange, purple, and turquoise make up a triangle on the color wheel. I notice that the colors are not in a particular place, they are all around the image.







This  piece is called Marilyn Monroe. It uses the colors of hot pink/magenta alot. It also has a little bit of yellow for hair, black for the outline, and skin color (tan.) He does not use a particular color scheme, but the colors work really well together to make the image very pleasing to the eye. I notice that Marilyn Monroe is very detailed in the image. He made sure to inquire every detail so that the design is great.
