The 1930s silkscreen poster "Learn to Fly" uses a limited color palette of 8 colors. In silkscreen, this technique uses flat color in shapes. The artist stretched their palette by using 2 colors together in stripes. You can see this in the background landscape and the yellow stripes over the airplane to show movement.
