colour

I found that blurring the photos of my components made it a lot easier to see the colour, so I took this opportunity to develop a colour pallet from my components. I completed a few paintings of them first, so that I could see which colours I was using most. I then when onto creating painted colour stripes, but this took a long time to do.

But after I had some time to think, I decided to open my photos up on photoshop, and created colour stripes by using the eye drop tool on there. I was able to break down the colour of each image a lot faster. Once I'd done that, I picked out the most common colours from each of my colour stripes to create my own colour pallet for my project.

I think that this colour pallet is really bright and upbeat, considering it originates from the components found in a TV! I also recreated my colour pallet out of madeira threads, so that my colours will be the same when I come to stitching.
