Day Eighty-five

      This has been a creative-centric day for me. I volunteered to bake for a fundraiser and while I baked, I watched (aka mostly listened) to an online class. I love my online classes! So many different perspectives and things to learn. This one was on painting color and light. One of the principles was to repeat color within the painting, which resulted in a fairy with purple hair and a unicorn with purple eyes.
​     It makes a lot of sense. It creates a more cohesive color palette and although I want you to notice the elf, I don't want his hair to be all you see. With the color in more than one place, it minimizes that possibility. 
​     I will have to go back and actually watch the class so that I get the full benefit of it. Fine with me -- I pick up another helpful nugget each and every time.
