Broken Sunrise
Since I did a broken sunset, I had to do a broken sunrise. This time I decided against using lines for the sky and did a gradient. Sunrises are paler and more blended than sunsets after I spent a lot of time photographing them in the morning. This really assaults the eyes with the orangy red against the blue waves. In the history of art there have been a few artists really into how color interacts with other colors. Josef Albers is kinda the father of color theory, but I never liked his colors or thought his work was very compelling. Rothko was another artist who really was into colors and their visual impact, but he was really good at it (his early figurative work ironically was pretty terrible). But it is true, certain colors when put next to each other really can pack a wallop.
