Rothko Palettes

Build Status

Violet, Black, Orange, Yellow on White and Red, 1949

Mark Rothko is an 20th-century American painter best known for his later work on "multi-forms" or "colour fields". These paintings consist of large blocks of colors that, despite being abstract forms, convey a wide array of human emotion. Much of this is achieved through composition, but color plays a large part as well.

This project provides R color palettes derived from some of Rothko's most well-known works. It is directly derivative of the Wes Anderson Palettes R package.

Installation

Rothko is currently under review at CRAN, and the development version should be used until CRAN release.
