The only article I have published dealing with color harmony is "Don't Overlook Looney Tunes." http://williambuffett.blogspot.com/2011/01/dont-overlook-looney-tunes.html It suggests swiping color schemes from other artists.
Another approach to color satisfaction is to put down experimental patches of color all around the surface and grope your way towards harmony. It is best done with an opaque paint such as acrylics so you can cover sour notes. For illustration, here is a picture I'm working on. I have only a vague idea of the overall scheme, so am using the trial-and-error method.
Without being coaxed, I'll publish the finished painting when it has achieved Beautiful.
