I took the assignment of creating a design liberally to also
include illustrations. Considering it’s close to Halloween something from the
occult seemed fitting. I found the green color scheme on Kuler with the
analogous setting, which displays harmonious colors. It made me think of
something toxic. What better way to represent “toxic” colors than bubbling
fluid and rising gases? For the spirit I added a significant amount of tint.
As I was playing around with the different settings, I found
that my green scheme was triadic with the same kind of brown used in the wood
under the cauldron.
The colors I used for the fire were also harmonious. I find it interesting how we see harmonious colors grouping together in nature.
Perhaps this is why we find them ascetically pleasing. The reds, oranges, and
yellows can be found all over the place. In addition to fire- autumn leaves,
volcanic eruptions and sunsets display these colors together.
