Instantiating a color via expressions: possible?
Using expressions, I can create a color reference by pick-whipping a color control and the result is:
var myColor = rgbToHsl(effect("Color Control")("Color"));
But, I want to avoid using a color control, and simply instantiate the color with a variable:
var myColor = rgbToHsl([159,27,41,1]);
…but this doesn’t seem to work. Is it possible? -

your rgb values need to be in values 0-1 rather than 0-255. so if you want to stick with entering 0-255 values you just need to divide that array by 255…
var myColor = rgbToHsl([159,27,41,255]/255);note, i did assume that you wante the alpha component to be full (255) not 1. if i guessed wrong, change the alpha back to 1.
