If I'm painting people I will not use my power colors that I might use with flowers. I would not likely put out 5 quinacrodone reds and purples, nor would I use thalo blue and thalo green.
This palette painted this hand - I think there are more complements on there than you see-I can make some awesome skin compliments with a green made from black and yellows (and do). On the image is ultramarine blue, ivory black and a chrome green. These will do for me.
Ultimately, the final painting is all that matters, and the paintings will endorse or undermine the worth and usefulness of said palette.
