My Favourite Complementary Colours

Module 1 - Chapter 2





I have chosen to work with red and green as this is my favourite pair of complementary colours. These are the classic Christmas colours - fir trees, ivy, poinsettias and holly bushes heavy with glossy red berries or the blood red roses, carnations and variegated geraniums of summertime.  Tomatoes, peppers, salad leaves, rosy apples, raspberries, strawberries and fiery chillies bring red and green to the table.  Here is a collage to illustrate red and green.  It contains hand painted papers, magazine images, scrapbooking papers, paint swatches and photographs.
