Dear teachers,
I've got some trouble with "colours" and I can't find a satisfying answer in any of my dictionaries.
When describing a drawing, colours should be mentioned as well, especially when their usage is of importance for the whole picture.
Problem 1: The man in the picture is completely green, which I would like to point out.
a) The man is drawn green whereas the trees are yellow....
b) The man is drawn in green....
c) The man is coloured green....
d) The man is coloured in green...
I'd prefer b) but I'm not really sure about it.
Problem 2:
a) Almost everything in the picture is held in dark colours, there's only one bright spot on the left.
b) is drawn with dark colours
Here, I've got no idea...
