Art to Inspiration: Color Blocking

I love these monthly challenges that my friend Supal has put together. They really give my brain a workout and allow me to look and think about things in a whole new way. Last month an abstract painting made me dream up a Valentine’s Day brunch fiesta. This month the complementary color pairing of the yellows and blues in the painting below led my mind to color blocking.

Here’s what this painting inspired me to put together.
