    Hi, estefania!

    I'm sorry that no one has yet come along to address your question!

    El Greco used a variety of colors in his paintings. For some things he used certain colors for emphasis and/or effect. How you would find these things out is by performing the following kinds of searches.

    There's a lot of information about him out there on the Internet. So much so, that I don't think that copying and pasting the information here would be justifiable.

    El Greco Colors Used - Google Search

    El Greco Colors Used Emphasis - Google Search

    El Greco Colors Used Effect - Google Search

    Of particular interest, will be information that you'll find on the following sites, among others that you can find on the search links above.
