initial color pallette

Initial color pallete and notes from critique:
-BAD (inapproriate) connotations of this:
.OCEAN - not like mountain blue sky. (i want old mounty sky -overcast)


-BAD connotations of this:
.yellows look NEW, and like BEACH
.closer greens look FRESH and NEW
.farther greens look like LIME, CORONA, NEWY

-there are NO GOOD connotations with these colors



-BAD connotations with these colors:
.the browns look a little clay like. (I want more rustic and mountainy)

-GOOD:
.the GREENS on the left are DRY GRASS like and FALL like tints.
.the BROWNS look mostly like FOREST colors, though they should be more rustic.
.the GREENS on the right are more aged looking (which is good) and nature-like and moss-like.



-BAD connotations:
.the pale BROWNS on the top are PALE and FLESHY, like PEBELS. (they should be more rusty and mountain-earthy and less PASTY)

-GOOD connotations:
.generally these look NATURY and OLDish which is good. except that brighter red one is a bit to red? should have more yellow in it. and a tad bit less saturation perhaps.





-It has been established that the general connotations of the color pallete should be:
.Rustic
.warn
.nature
.antique
.solitary?
.earthy
.wise?


-Look to later blog post for an improved color pallete.
