<h2 id="calida">Calida</h2>Flat opaque paint in broad unblended planes, hard raking light and sharp blue-violet shadows, in ochre, mustard, teal and cream.Calida turns any prompt into flat, opaque paint laid down in broad unblended planes with crisp hard edges, closer to gouache or poster paint than to a photograph. Detail is stripped back: forms are built from simplified geometric shapes and flat silhouettes, with no surface texture and no gradient inside a shape. The palette runs on ochre, burnt orange, mustard yellow, teal, slate blue and warm cream, and light is hard, raking and directional, throwing sharp-edged shadows in deep blue-violet and cool grey.<h3 id="best-for">Best for</h3>- Sunlit outdoor scenes with hard, directional light from one side- Quiet interior vignettes where a window lays a bright rectangle across the floor- Still lifes of everyday objects on a bare table or windowsill- Wide landscapes of terraced fields and dry stone walls in low raking sun- Streets and building exteriors- Small objects seen very close, where a single sharp-edged shadow does the work<h3 id="usage">Usage</h3>- Weight: 1.0 - works from 0.75 to 1.25- Trigger word: none needed- Name the light and its direction - hard sun from the left, low sun from the right - the look depends on it- Keep scenes simple and let shapes carry the picture; heavy detail fights the flat planes
