Color Harmony - Seaweed Wallpaper

"Seaweed Wallpaper" designed by 

John Henry Dearle

The artwork I chose for this weeks theme of "Color Harmony" is an image of a wallpaper created by John Henry Dearly. As you can see, the color palette consists of five main colors: light green, dark green, light blue, red, and orange. I would consider this to be a great example of an analogous color scheme as the different tints and shades of the colors could be considered "neighbors" on the color wheel for this specific artwork. 

You can find this artwork in the book "Pattern Design: A Period Design Sourcebook" by Sian Evans at the library on campus.
