I tried to use similar colors throughout the pieces to better connect them. The dishes and lettering on the measuring cup are red. The batter of the cake is red. I used a red table to set the plates on. Yellow shows up in the pieces as well. The oil, egg, and peaches. Food isn't always dull, it can be very colorful.

Panel 1
Panel one must have a dominate shape and an accent shape. I used a color pallet of green because it visually helps describe the word organic. The shapes that I used are elegant and flowing, much like the characteristics of plants.

Panel 2
Panel two had to have a dominate shape, accent shape and a decoration. I used an orange - brown pallet because these colors also describe organic things. Dirt, leaves changing colors, flowers, tree bark. The small curl object is the decoration. It goes with the flow of the the curves of the other objects but is small and has bland color.

Panel 3
Panel tree must have a dominate shape, accent shape, decoration and a pattern. I tried to make the piece more complex by using several colors. There are many colors in nature that stand and work together side by side. The background is a stone pattern. It has a tint of brown like dirt. I didn't want the background to stand out a lot. The dominate and accent shape overlap to make a sort of plant object.

Panel 4
Panel four must have a dominate shape, accent shape, decoration and a texture. The colors are more chromatic in this piece then in panel three. The dominate and accent shapes make a flower. The textured background is a closeup of a large rock. The colors that are seen here are the rocks true natural colors.


Part B

This panel is a composite of all the elements that panels 1-4 had. A dominate shape, accent shape, decorative shape, pattern and a texture. I used a wide range of colors. Many of the colors I used in this piece are also in the other pieces. Organic materials have a wide range of colors. Plants are all different shades of green. When fall comes things turn orange, yellow and red. I didn't use vibrant oranges and reds because the look I was going for wasn't a fall scene. To me the objects I used look like flowers, so I used reds, purple, pinks and greens. The background is a pattern of stones. I gave the stones a tint of brown for a feel of earth. Dirt can be many different colors of brown. The objects in the background are duller in color because they are farther away in space.
