Colour Puzzles

 


Wouldn't these make great puzzles? They are already like puzzles, with each piece somehow aligned with the next. The two swans represent a unity of colours such as the graphite grey and red, or the magenta and blue. For a more literal example of the style check out Addictive Puzzle.

Earth colours are rusty, earthy, and much like shades of tea or coffee. They also provide a great backdrop for brighter colour. This scene was meant to represent an underground cavern with water, and various forms of like snaking through the crevasses.

Finally, this painting started to become the inside of a brain on a microscopic level, with connecting axons and astrocytes. In between the brain tissue are little pops of colourful objects that are dreams. Everything we think and dream exists on the grey and red stuff called brain!
