26 colors? 23 colors? Why?

What does it proofit the artist besides laziness....

People! You don't need this many colors.

Different Styles, Different Palettes
 

Hi Tony -

Shanks and Zorn evidence very different styles, so to me it seems logical that their approach to their palettes differ. Zorn has a lot of movement and high expressiveness. If he had added many colors on top of that, it might have been too much, so I think he chose wisely in limiting his colors.

Personally, as an artist in the process of learning the basics, Shank's palette would be too much f or me to deal with at the moment.

Respectfully,
Julie
