HUEsday...daring orange


Orange to Red gradient with lots of bright icy Turquoise and cool dark Blues for contrast. Beautiful Kyoto Landscape found on Far and Far away

For people who know me it's no secret that I've got a little feud with the color orange. . . I can't explain why, but it kinda repels me most of the time.
But helping out Mom with renovation lately, I had to face a lot of orange. . . There's lots of reds, oranges and especially aged, orangy shaded wood furniture to find in her apartment. All that is supposed to stay, because of budget, so had to come up with ideas how to combine these tones with other materials and hues so it would look . . .well, more bearable. ;b

Here's some combinations I could actually start liking. . .;)

Cooler light salmon-colored hue with brighter orange combined with shiny Lime Green and bits of Rosé.
Bright Kimono worn in Shinto Ceremony

Nature's creativity: Orange hues divided by bright pinky Violet plus greenish Yellow highlights!

qick HUEsday ...sketching CI colors

aaaannnd. . . it's ~~tue~~HUEsday again!
Man, how fast this week faded away. So much do-tos for college.
But . . . take this quick titbit of palette making from today's REviving my Colourlovers.com account

Started a tumblr microblog last week. . .
rather a personal virtual refugium for visualizing my dream of a life (to be) . . .
Maybe the universe will start turning spirits towards removing the barriers on my path to reach that dream. . .if only I visualize it often and stern enough ;b

Anyways: these were my color choices for the layout. Liked them enough to make a palette. . .

What do you think of it?! =)

Happy Color HUEsday

Gave the posting schedule a further thought...
From now on, forget about Tuesdays...let's make it HUEsday!

Color inspiration galore!!!

Today I was sneaking about the web agein scouting some layout inspirations for portfolios.
(I'm hoping to have my portfolio and application done soon, so I can go out and find a place to do an internship or jobbing.)
I'm still not totally sure about which colors I want to use for the layout theme.
I was shoving around some colored and textured paper bits to try finding a match.
Going to show you when I'm closer to a decision. ;)

Here are some finished and well worked out graphic designs by other artists and designers, which I immediately attract my attention. Wha do you think? lime? aqua? lemon? ^^
