Creativity and Color



So, in this post I am focusing on the interesting characteristics of color. The color wheel is a good thing to utilize and memorize. Lots of trial and error make near perfect color mixing results. Add a little creativity and WHAMMY! You got art! Well, there are lots of other rules to also consider, but you get the point!
This is a finger-painting I did on Valentines Day night 2009, hanging out with other single friends. Lots of us were having a good time just simply doing heart shapes on cards. If you notice, the colors aren't verasim (true). Instead the colors are inverted. So, in other words, if you were to take a film-photo of it and look at the negative it would be a red rose with a green stem on a white background. Ta-da!

  1. I remember being there, and doing that. I enjoy the idea behind this rose. It is beautiful how it is, but has a hidden or alternative side to it as well.
