How my design & art projects influence each other
This morning I finished the website for Fuzzy Rainbow. In case it changes drastically in the future, here's a screenshot of the current state.
Leaving the pink header background at the top to contrast with the blue was an afterthought I had this morning. I left it because it reminded me of a long-buried memory of how I used to think blue and pink together were the best colors. I was five years old, and I always paired them. The blue had to be a very particular shade of deep sky blue, while the pink was a softened hot pink. After uploading the website, I stopped thinking visually for awhile. I had to run around and deal with offline work for several hours. Paperwork, phone calls, and almost 200 miles of driving, ugh. I was not thinking about rainbows at all. Then, toward the evening, I found an old painting under my desk and pulled it out to work on it. Notice how it ended up looking pretty similar to the website. I also painted another painting, which uses the same colors.
