Color Class - Simultaneous Contrast


Thursday, October 2, 2014

The last piece we created for the color class was about simultaneous contrast.  This concept is achieved when you use two high intensity complementary colors next to each other so that they appear to vibrate.  For this piece I used a combination of my kaleidoscope program and Photoshop Elements.  I first created simple black line kaleidoscopes that I opened in PSE and used the paint bucket tool to fill in the complementary colors.  I repeated the design four times and printed each one to a separate fabric sheet.  I then stitched the four sheets together and free motion stitched the entire piece.
