Mark Rothko Color field paintings are defined by solid areas of color that cover the whole canvas.

Color field art is a type of Abstract Expressionism that uses large expanses of color to create the mood of the work.

Color field paintings are generally large, and convey a sense of infinity, and being immersed in an environment of color.

Complementary Colors:

These are the two colors directly opposite each other on the color wheel such as yellow and purple or red-orange and blue-green.

When these colors are placed next to each other they’re intensified. If you want a strong effect this color scheme works well.
