Blog assignment 4 "Analogous Color Palette"

Sore Models #4 by Jane Hammond in 1994. Analogous colors are colors that are adjacent to each other on the color wheel. Some examples are green, yellow green and yellow or red, red violet and violet. Analogous color schemes are often found in nature and are pleasing to the eye. The combination of these colors give a bright effect in the area, and are able to accommodate many changing moods. The images derive from exotic and fanciful sources such as magic, puppetry, knot-tying diagrams, alchemy, erotica, palm­istry and phrenology, and include commonplace items such as flowers, dancers, games, children's drawings, furniture, animals and the alphabet. I think the color are adjacent to each other on the color wheel but the pics have nothing to do with why I picked it but I did put a reason why the artist put them in there.
