    Question I need your input on a color scheme

    I'm going to be making a triptych and the subject matter on the first piece is green, the second is red and the third is blue. I'm stumped on the background color. Should I use the same color on the background for all of them to tie them together since it's a triptych? And what color should I use? I've been looking at the color wheel and trying to figure out what would look best but I'm still stumped.

    Make some color roughs and test what looks good.

    That's a good idea. I hadn't really thought to try that. Thanks.
