Color Scheme
Began as a monochromatic green with black, white & grey. When I completed the design I decided to use CMYK red as a way to move the eye around the composition. So I guess I ended up with a complementary color scheme.
The repeated shapes help give a good balance to the pieces. I think that I prefer the second more, just because the red is a little too distracting.
ReplyDeleteI really like the repetition of your patterns and use of the color green. You used the image trace tool very well. Good job!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a map for a video game, very interesting. I like how you chose to incorporate all the tomatoes!
ReplyDeleteI like the first more, because the red pops up on the green background. Although, I think if you repeated red one more time in the lower part of the design, it would look more balanced.
ReplyDeleteI prefer the first image, i like the pop of red giving us a new color to see.
ReplyDeletegood choice and use of the red and green color pallet.
ReplyDeleteGreat movement and color choices. I like all the different elements you used to fill with patterns. The monochromatic scheme worked well. Good job.
