Question illustration
Answer
A
The artist would want to decide on a single hue, and then he/she would use the neighboring colors to the left and/or right of the chosen hue.
B
Each time the artist chose to use a certain hue, he/she would want to make sure that all hues next to it in the artwork are from the opposite side of the color wheel.
C
The artist would want to choose a certain hue to begin, and then alter the hue by adding tint and tone to the hue to create values.
D
The artist should consider only the intensity of the colors he/she uses, since all colors work well together so long as their intensities complement one another.
