Creativity

Image
I found this image in American Photo on Campus. I found this image of these lucky charms in what appears to be a milk bath with marshmallow flavoring and perhaps some added color. I thought this idea was very creative and thought provoking. I think the colors here are very bold and they bring out such a random balance it seems almost calming.

Color Harmony Rules

Image
I found this image in Graphic Design USA. I can see and appreciate the monochromatic color scheme used, meaning that the same color is used, and the the hue will always remain the same. The blue is so subtle here that I think it really ties everything together well. This advertisement was found also in Graphic Design USA (pg 19). I saw this as a good example for analogous. I see the The violet blue and blue-violet used here to convey the same color family. This ad was found in Graphic Design USA (pg 99). This is an example of complementary colors used to make the font stand out against the background. The scanner did change the image coloring a bit but the background is generally blue whereas the font is an orangey shade of brown. This last image was found in American Photo on Campus (pg 6). This is my example of triadic color schemes used to harmonize the scene. In this photo, I see purple, green and orange along with the blue pants to really compliment these colors.

Color Inspiration

Image
This week's assignment was to find an image that was visually pleasing. This image really caught my eye. The colors captured here compliment and really bring out each other color. The scanned image appears to make it look painted, but in printed in the magazine Popular Photography on Campus, the colors are so vibrant and work very well with one another. You can even see that in the pixelation in the second photo. The architecture here is super interesting because of the angle the photo was shot at. The bottom of these buildings may not have had color, making this so interesting, almost changing the image. This image was taken by an architectural photography, Slobodan Blagojevic. I think he did a really good job capturing the personality of the city and eye-catching angles.
