Question: Painting a Photo studio!.!.!. What color!?
I read the answers to the other question but my situation is a little different!. I have a small studio I have muslin backdrops and its more of a art portrait studio!. I don't want my subjects too look ill or discolored which I know the wall color can influence!.

any educated suggestions would be wonderful!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I've worked in some smaller studios, and they've all had darker colors!.!.!. one had deep burgundies, and the other had black in the studio area, and had that curtained off with a black curtain!.

It's up to you whether you want to go dark or not!.!.!. but if you go lighter, pinks, muted reds, blues and purples are good!.!.!.!. oranges, yellows and greens are not!.!.!. those colors can reflect and make your subject look like they have jaundice!.!.!. the yellow highly reflects!.!.!. don't use anything with yellow!. On the other hand, don't use like fire engine red, but a muted red, would work out nicely!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
