Week Nine - Color a l'Henri Matisse

The following is a Matisse-inspired cut out collage done in analogous colors. I used the analogous blue, green, and purple as a means of keeping the color scheme subdued and well tied together. In addition, the utilization of cool colors emphasizes the implied shape of the Aum. Second is the same composition in a different color scheme, producing more tension through the use of warm colors.
