I think the vibrancy of the blue is what's competing with the pink in the second card — there's no single strong focal point. The blue background would probably work if it was less saturated or lighter in color. I imagine that if you grayscaled both cards, your first one would have lots of contrast and your second would be a fairly even mid-gray. So I wouldn't say there's too much color, just that there's too much of the same value of color.<br /><br />Oh goodness, yes, reinkers. Your use of the dollar sign made me chuckle. I discovered just the other day that one of my Copics was completely dry, and I see reinkers looming large in my wallet's future. Yesterday I went ahead and purchased a gram scale to weigh all my markers and see what other dry ones are hiding. At least when purchasing Copic products it's not hard to get free shipping? <br /><br />Yay for Monet! I hope you enjoy the exhibit and feel inspired.Caciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01892525960901159312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799276623638360369.post-5289262459515471762019-09-10T13:07:28.591-04:002019-09-10T13:07:28.591-04:00thanks for your honesty!
