Muted Colour
Industrial Bleakness, Romance, Stormy Landscapes
The colours in a muted picture all take on a smoother, more evocative tone and is often more expressive than using strong colours. The light disperses from the objects in the picture in a hazy way, softening the tone of the colours, making the picture more delicate.
A light muting effect can produce a romantic effect, where a dark muting effect will create a bleaker picture.
