Shilpashastra (iconography)
Source: Shodhganga: Elements of Art and Architecture in the Trtiyakhanda of the Visnudharmottarapurana (shilpa)1) Different Shades of colours are created by the artists through the mixing of primary colours in the ancient Indian tradition of Painting (citra), according to the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa, an ancient Sanskrit text which (being encyclopedic in nature) deals with a variety of cultural topics such as arts, architecture, music, grammar and astronomy. Mixing of colours is a great technique used by the artists to make numerous shades of colours. According to the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa, a painter can create hundreds or thousands of colours by amalgamating the primary colours. [...] So, it can be said that, appropriate selection, proportion and distribution of colours are very necessary to get different shades of colours. The idea of which has been pointed out in the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa.
2) The Shades of colours (in a painting) are conveyed through the concept of Varṇikābhaṅga, which represents one of the six limbs of Painting (citra), according to the Kāmasūtra and Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa.—[...] The last kind of limbs of Painting called varṇikābhaṅga is related to the colour differentiation of a Painting. In the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa a detail discussion on the proper implementation of colours, narration on primary colours, different shades of colours are also found.
