\"\"<\/a>Today we’ll contemplate blues and beyond with the joyously colorful work of\u00a0Anarina Anar.<\/a><\/p>\n

Although the oranges dominate\u00a0 with their bright hues and fill the largest and terminal shape, I think the blue grounds all the colors here. Sitting in the middle like a color referee, the calm blues blush purple on one side as if the purple circle above has been allowed to drain into it. The bold oranges, on the other hand, are given a definitive border of dots that say, “Hey, you can play with us but stay on your side.” The oranges concede to have a bit of purple in their territory with an ode to the blues within the purple ring so that we have a visual connection between all the pieces and color players on this playground.<\/p>\n

Yep, I just personified colors as if they were characters in a story. And why not? They really are, more often than not, integral to the telling of they story within any piece. Here they are central characters that give the necklace its lively spirit.<\/p>\n

Color is at the core of all of Anarina’s work as you can see with a quick jaunt over to\u00a0her\u00a0Flickr site<\/a>\u00a0and her\u00a0Etsy store<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
