Quote Colour experiment

 I've experimented with a few colours, I kept them in pastille tones and musky, which I'm not going to experiment with brighter colours as these connote meaning with the poem as well. The poem is stating how great the River Thames is even with it's con's, so keeping a 'dirty' colour relates to that although it's not the most exciting bold colour it's subtle relating well with the poem. I am going to rule out the purple although it has the correct tone, I want to link in with the colour of the Thames not exactly but closer than purple. The green makes me think that the river is really dirty and I didn't really reflect the pro's of the river mentioned so I want to keep within the blue/turquoise feel.
