Color 2

The idea behind this project is largely the same as the last one: take my original black & white design and add color to it. However, this time I decided to work with cool colors. I used a variety of blues, greens and purples to give this version a distinctly cooler tone than the previous one.

The sense of movement is once again maintained by juxtaposing and overlapping elements of differing colors, sizes, transparencies and weights. The vivid colors and bold lines towards the bottom of the image draw the eye first, and the image moves upwards from there, dissipating into more transparent color fills and thinner lines towards the top.

My main goal when originally creating this composition was to create that sense of movement, and I think the addition of color helped highlight the differences between the various elements and make the overall image more dynamic.
