There’s a beautiful, strange allure to the colour purple. It feels occult to me, otherworldly. Gilt features the colour in many small ways.
Such use of colour is hedonistic, sure, but the creative journey need not be entirely austere and morose.
@ThreeOhFour I was always taught that every creative decision should have a "why" behind it.
Took me far too long to realise that the "why" can be as simple as, for instance, "I like purple"
@lunarloony Yes, exactly. It’s perfectly valid for the reason to be “I want to”. “I like this”. Easy to fall into the trap of overthinking/overcomplicating things.
@lunarloony In this case it falls in nicely with the triadic colour scheme I picked for the project, which is a sensible and well balanced way to pick a colour scheme. But why did I pick this specific colour scheme? I like it.
