Color Set inspired by/made to mimic Zorn's limited palette.
Anders Zorn was a Swedish painter who was internationally acclaimed, and recognized for his portraits. He painted Kings and Presidents and stuff. Very fancy, very famous.
What's cool about him is he was known for his four-color limited palette, which, through blending, could achieve fantastic ranges and, most importantly for our uses, a variety of tones pretty much ideal for portraits.
This color set is my attempt at recreating his range digitally. The result is what I hope you'll agree is a pretty satisfying set of skin tones and lip-appropriate hues.
Below is a quick mouth I drew to test out the set in action. I used only colors in this set and my very favorite brush, the Persephone pencil, from saturns_day. It's available as part of their character brush pack, if you want to check that out (Content ID：2060843). It's definitely worth checking out.
Anyway, I hope this is useful to some of you.
Have fun creating!
