Sources of Inspiration: Color

My blog focuses on international music, as such, I look at a lot of different cultures and locations. These locations are often featured in the travel magazines that are common today. I have noticed an interesting trend among these travel magazines. Many of them feature many shades of blue. Whether this is to accent a skyline, or draw attention to a body of water, blue fills the covers and pages of several travel magazines. Interestingly enough, the complimentary color for text is often yellow. The brightness and warmth of this color contrast from the blue pleasantly enough to draw attention, but not distract from the image. This color combination could easily be utilized on my blog, as well. I might not focus on travel specifically, but international music is often a subject of interest in these catalogs. The connection might be a stretch, but it certainly exists. Its purpose would transfer very well to my blog and add a comforting color scheme that readers would appreciate.
