I'm falling behind on messages, but there was some discussion/questions
about what these colors look like in different light sources:
I want to emphasize that I am not worth two cents in
identifying/classifying subtleties of colors or matching them. Paint
chips are free & readily available, so I figure they can be used to let
others know more or less what colors look like.
In all lights, the photo of SAVANNAH SUNSET ranges somewhere from 4 to
5, and the intensity is somewhere from A to C. In contrast, the photo
of HARVEST OF MEMORIES (described as bright yellow in the catalog) is
somewhere around 1 or 2, with intensity around D or E.
