CHAPTAH 2

Chapter two of “Launching the Imagination” is about the element of color. I really liked this chapter because it showed how important color is to the piece of art. 
Im really interested in design and color schemes, so this chapter was perfect for me. 
I have always had a problem with using just two colors of complementary color system for working on an art piece. It just bugged me and in away was extremely disharmonious to me. I respect the colors green and red being complimentary colors but there’s something about those two colors in a art piece with out other colors just gets to me. So I am extremely positive about split complementary color schemes and triadic color schemes. Lately I have been on a flat color style of design. It’s used a lot for new applications for phones, tablets, and other technological tools. I’ve realized that in the past two years colors choices have changed dramatically. Choral, mint, tans, are being used more for accent colors when used properly. Flat blues, reds, greens, purples are used more in application type design right now which are understandable because the reds, yellows, blues, and greens, are normally used to show importance they kind of have their own special lingo. So if you look on google.com, you can see their color schemes for their apps are red, blue, yellow, green.  msn.com has red, yellow, blue, and green in their logo and web design color scheme.
