Gestalt and Color

For this assignment, I used kuler.adobe.com to create a custom color scheme. Each color is a shade of a primary color. I used the RGB controls to alter the colors to a dark, relaxed color scheme. The Gestalt principles I used included (1) closure in that the letters of "fly" extend to the background, yet our eyes can put barriers around the letters to make them complete and readable, and (2) figure/ground relationship by using color to separate the letters from the background and to include a symbol (bird). The white of the background and the letters unites the picture.
