Blue and Orange Complements

In landscapes, paints, flowers….

my eye is always drawn to the blue/orange complement combination.

The land around Perth, up north near Kalbarri has beautiful and rich terracotta tones.

Perfect, inspirations.

Land and Sea Complements

The boulders and escarpments…..

Fiery orange.

That ignites the earth when the last light of the sun touches the boulders.

In the above boulder image, looking past all that dominating rich earthy orange color… we can see the nuances of its complement, blue.

Whispering in ribbons throughout the rock.

What an inspiration!

The sea ranges from cobalt teal blue, to phalo blue and indigo.

Depending upon the mood of the sea that day.

The act of creation, in any media is a fascinating and magical process. I simply love to create. Expressing in color, line, tone, texture - as if, they were words upon a page. Creating a uniquely me, interpretation. Enjoy More of my "one-of-a-kind" expressive art at society6.com/debiriley and, redbubble.com/people/debijriley/shop View more posts
