The picture above is from the anime Saiyuki, created by Kazuya Minekura. The colors she used created a nostalgic, peaceful vibe. She used many shades and tints within her artwork shown here. For example, Goku's face was shadowed by the straw hat, yet his hair showed the tinted highlights to indicate how shiny his hair is. Also, the different values create a more realistic appearance. The colors were used to create a joyful and somewhat nostalgic tone. The picture reminded me of how I used to play with my next door neighbor's sunflowers, and the colors make me think of the old care free days.
