John I just want to clarify that the Reilly palette is Cadmium based. His palette is arranged in three rows, one for neutrals, one based on Cadmium Orange and one based on Cadmium Red. I took Reilly's value based arrangement and substituted his cadmiums for my earth tones. His palette is capable of far greater chromatic intensities than I feel are necessary to paint flesh while mine covers a wider range of hues.

Many artists prior to Reilly used a set up which featured color strings arranged by value. DaVinci and Bouguereau are but two.
