Three Color Compositions

After last class, I felt like I got a better understanding of what I wanted, and how to balance the figure ground. Also, Luke had mentioned that if you were to turn off one layer of the composition, meaning one color, and were to only look at one layer at a time, each individual color would be able to work as a separate composition, and that then together the composition should work as well. I took those things in mind, and tired to consider them as I created my first composition. Out of the three compositions, this is by far my favorite. I feel it is balanced, and the different curves with the bold lines work well together. I also tried to create a little dimension by having some part be over the bold lines and others underneath it. I'm not sure how that turned out, but I am very satisfied with this piece and excited to try doing something similar with 4 colors.



This Composition, I was thinking about fall, and the leaves. I'm not sure if it works. I wanted the leaves to not be perfect, but I wanted them to look more like they were blowing. I'm not sure I that ended up happening.

And this last one, I used primary colors, and just made it really quickly. I also don't really like it. But I think it works better then the second one. I think I like things that are more curvy then box like.
