Color Cube Grande, Indigo Ash & Olive

This color cube is about contrast that feels natural rather than constructed.

Indigo Ash & Olive brings together a cool, muted violet blue and a warm, earthy green. The relationship between them is quiet and balanced. They do not compete or mirror each other. They create space and let the surface breathe.

This cube is for painters who enjoy color relationships that feel settled, experienced, and grounded rather than decorative.

Indigo Ash is a cool violet blue with visible granulation and a soft, dusty character.

In light washes it opens into layered, textured areas with subtle shifts and depth. With more pigment it becomes steadier and more contained, holding its color without turning heavy or dramatic. Indigo Ash feels reflective, composed, and slightly distant.

It works well for shadows, distance, florals, atmospheric passages, and backgrounds where blue should feel nuanced rather than clear or bright.

Olive is a muted granulating yellow green with warm, earthy undertones and gentle movement.

When diluted, it spreads softly across the paper, forming organic textures with a natural, almost familiar feel. With less water it deepens into a grounded green that stays open and breathable. Olive feels stable, calm, and quietly supportive.

This color is well suited for foliage, landscapes, botanical work, shadows within greenery, and areas where green should feel settled rather than fresh.
