Photo-A-Week
For this week, I’m going to feature a photo of a slightly different kind. In case you didn’t know, in addition to my photography, I also scrapbook. I’ve started making scrapbooks, cards, gifts, etc. to sell to others. You can check out that website at – Simply Kincke (kĭnk’y).
With this photo-a-week I’m showing off a card I made for a wedding a few weeks ago.
I really love this shot because it not only shows the detail on this card, but at an angle that adds a romance to it. The colors aren’t traditional love and romance colors except for the red, but the combination made so much sense. I pulled from the centerpiece embellishment of the stack of love letters and then from a color wheel. I have started using the wheel in all aspects of my art. I’m even using it in my photography. When looking at a scene, I’ll change my point of view to capture the most appealing color combination. Now, of course, this isn’t a rule to live by, but it’s fun to try when the opportunity presents itself. Enjoy and give the color wheel a second look – it’s not just for painters.
