I chose a blue, green, orange split complimentary color scheme. I'm enjoying exploring color again, it reminds me of one of my favorite classes in college; Color 1 & 2.
I used several new batiks and some old ones along with some hand dyed fabric. I loved playing with the color flow.
The orange was a challenge. Not only is it hard to come by, it was a bit extreme. It ended up balancing the image.
