Marigold Color Palette
An ancient-style narrative with "Marigold Color Palette" as the core
At the beginning of spring, the world is like a splendid painting scroll that is gradually spread out. At that time, the city's painters gathered, all came to explore the perfect color.
There is a painter named Yizhi, whose heart is in harmony, and he is only in pursuit of unique colors. One day, Yizhi strolled to the outskirts of the city. At that time, the sun was shining, and among the flowers and green leaves, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a border of golden flowers. Calendula or bright yellow like sunflower, just like the dawn of the morning, the morning light dispels the cold of the night, its color is fresh and beautiful, it seems to be able to awaken the sleeping spirit; or orange rosy, like the twilight of the sun, the glow smudges the sky, its color is warm and moist, as if it can comfort the wandering heart. These two colors are intertwined with each other, and they are scattered and picturesque, like poetry.
Yizhi seemed to be inspired by God, and his heart was surging. He hurried home, took the painting equipment, and carefully ground the color of the calendula and adjusted it on the tip of the pen. Then, he waved it on rice paper, painted the delicate core of the flower with bright yellow, and dyed the petals of the flower with orange. Not long after, a masterpiece began to take shape, and I saw that the flowers in the painting were lifelike, seemingly swaying in the wind and emitting wisps of fragrance.
When the painting was completed, Yi Zhi rushed to the painting fair with this painting. Everyone was amazed when they saw it. In the painting, bright yellow and orange complement each other. The bright yellow is like the warm sun in spring, full of vitality; the orange is like the fruitful autumn, calm atmosphere. The wonders of this "Marigold Color Palette" are fully expressed in the painting, making the viewer feel like they are in a sea of marigolds, intoxicated and unable to return. Since then, Yi Zhi's name has also become famous in the painting world. The color rhyme of his "Marigold Color Palette" has also been studied and passed down by later generations of painters.
