Color Inspiration

Communication Arts, July/August 2009, Page 139

This composition was made by an illustrator, Gary Kelley, who created a series of images for a biography of Eleanor Roosevelt. It is a composition made of pastel on paper. This piece captured my attention through its old, dark, and gloomy tone. It's somewhat dull, but perhaps its meant to be taken seriously and describes how Eleanor Roosevelt viewed the place. I took a look at the rest of the series and found that they all contain this sort of color scheme. It really makes you wonder what type of life Eleanor Roosevelt lived.
