Sherwin Williams Colormix 2014 Competition

The Sherwin-Williams colormix Competition is the first design competition I have entered. The task was to render three perspectives of an art gallery in a color palette chosen from Sherwin-Williams colors. Choosing five Sherwin Williams colors I rendered the entrance in the color Downing Straw, the hanging clouds and trim in Pearl Gray, and the gallery walls in Link Gray, Aurora Brown, and Chinese Red. The color choices were an inspiration from the artwork of Cary Henrie. Can you imagine a world without color? Sometimes I think we take the importance of color for granted. Color is very powerful it plays an important role in the world we live in. Color can bring about different moods. A color may be soothing to an individual while aggravating to another. When working with colors I find it very difficult to match a color unless I can identify the color. Sherwin-Williams has created a wonderful phone app called ColorSnap. With Colorsnap downloaded on your phone, you can take a picture and match colors to the picture.
