Colour Lover: The Deluxe Edition

I run a Colour Lover series on my blog every Monday. Colour Lover is an online community for people who LOOOOOOOOVE color. Colour Lovers create color palettes just for the heck of it. They also create wallpaper patterns from these very color palettes and share them with everyone.

The beauty of Colour Lover is that you can sample and extract colors from any image. That's what I do in my Colour Lover series -- I sample colors from a single photo every Monday, just for the heck of it. Today's Deluxe Edition features not just one, but five images, paintings from my favorite artists: Chagall, Monet, Boticelli, Renoir, da Vinci. Please note that the color palettes for La Promenade and Mona Lisa were created by fellow Colour Lover, Ruecian.

I hope you enjoy these! :)
