When I first began putting this picture together, I liked the blue/ochre
complementary color combination, the cold/warm contrast. To hold those
elements together, I opted for the rich darker blue stripe along with a
touch of salmon and yellow. The abstract round form of a watch face then
holds
everything together and marks time.
Around the world we are
watching the seasons change, the days change, the colors change — as
though through a porthole on a ship. And off in the distance a rising
colorful “sun” awaits. None too soon.
