Seriously feeling this crazy color scheme: plums, neutrals & a fabulous coral. This feels like a party dress with gold sparkles to me. Maybe add a few dashes of a pale turquoise for an extra zing of color?

Tonal Tuesday: party plum aplomb

There was this crazy crushed velvet couch from the 70s in my friend’s basement in Junior High. That couch saw some crazy baby teenager makeouts in it’s day. Probably makeouts from multiple generations! Well, that thought killed the mood, huh? The colors are still delightful even if the idea of parental makeouts is not!

The colors were rich, warm and broken-in. The most comfortable cozy rainbow ever.

Tonal Tuesday: autumn lake
Missing Lake Michigan & the bicycle path along its shore. Afternoon sunlight and a cool breeze.

All the beach glass that Claude had collected over the summer perched on the window sill above his bed. Sometimes, the sun would be at the perfect angle for it to shine through the multicolored collection projecting mad shapes all over his feet as he daydreamed in the afternoon. They were his thinking colors.
