I like the use of broken reds in this concept. You can see in the background, the red is very dominant as it fills up a large amount of the painting You can also see the breaking up of it as it gets darker and murkier as it gets closer to the edge and away from the light source.
The red also reaches out from the window and is reflected onto the oldmans clothes and woman, acting as a rim light.
Here i found an artist who's been using the nintendo 3ds to sketch and do some colour concepts. i was looking at the bottom left concept in particular. This is a really good example of the artist using two complimentary colours (orange blue) and mixing them to create broken colours.
At the light source, you can see the orange and blue being very contrasting. However when we get to the shadows on the wooden floors and shed, you can see hints of the blue in there. Same with the men, we see hints of orange in their shadows. This makes the whole image work together in terms of colour. If black shadows were used, it would seem very out of place and may make certan areas pop out where you wouldnt want it to.
