My complementary colors birdie

Here is my final project of complementary colors.

You can choose what you want to submit for your project, all the processes and palettes, or just the final illustration... I know it can seem overwhelming so you can choose to make just 1 color palette or make them one at a time... but I assure you that working with colors is super useful and you will benefit from it! I cannot wait to see what you will create! Have fun! 

 

1. First I did the simple palettes of complementary colors

2. I picked 1 palette that I preferred (in my case red-orange and blue-green) and developed it. In this way, I created the extended palette for the final illustration.

3. I made two quick color sketches, one with neutrals and one with vibrant colors, both studies painted with color from my extended palette.
