Generally, analogous color schemes will guarantee color harmony, though they may lack a certain vibrancy. If we find this to be the case in our painting we can introduce an accent to some areas. Cool accents may be added if the painting is generally warm, and warm accents for paintings that are generally cool. Use a complement to the dominant color. 

In the example, I've put some faint blue/purple on the chest of the deer.

This is a great tutorial, but one question; There are colours in the piece that fall outside your colour scheme, besides just the blue, like the green of the grass in the foreground. How do you have a colour like that not mess with the harmony?

The green you see is actually a dark yellow. Pop it into photoshop and color pick to see what I mean.
