Color Study

Depth

Depth

For this project we studied the brightness of colors and how it affects the way it is percieved. I made this by messing with the saturation of each rectangle and layered them ontop of one another.

Movement

Movement

For this project we tried to simulare movement through color. I chose two colors that contrasted each other to helo the composition stand out and confuse the eye into thinking that the piece was moving either towards the viewer or away.

Both

Combination

For this project, we used three different colors to attempt to show depth and movement in a 2D environment. I used three colors that seemed to compliment each other well and then played with the placement and the brightness of each color.

Same Color

For this project we took four colors and tried to find a background color that made them look completely different.
