Oh yeah I forgot to teach you about color picking.
Hardly you'll ever find the exact colors for an art piece, and that's okay. Digital art is meant to be easily editable, so as long as you try to reach like, 80% of the color accuracy, that's alright.
What I did there is to add a color filter on the topmost layer: simply use the bucket tool, pick a solid color and play with the blending mode and opacity. In that beach scene, I selected a turquoise color (halfway blue to green, like Miku's hair color kind of) because blue and yellow tends to green. This feeling of unity improves the scene because they won't feel off or shopped from a different source. This is why despite the ship being on the sea and the guitarist on the horizon matching with the BG's horizon, the result is still way off.
