an interesting colour scheme



... if i may say so myself. 

blue notes and mustard mixed in to beiges and woody browns with a touch of gold.

here you can find all the "usual suspects" = my favorite ingredients to a little still life: some wood, some glass and some ceramic, so you get glossy versus matt and transparent versus opaque. add a potted plant or other vegetal, it makes all the difference. for the sake of the colour scheme i have a bit neglected the aspect of mixing shapes cleverly. will do next time. 

pics taken this morning in my own home (and yes: this is definitely the most organised spot in our flat, the rest is rather a jolly mess).

out of proportion











basically yesterday's still life with some additions.
inspired by a photograph (posted on june 20) i cut a stem of yellow lilies on an outing on sunday and today took one blossom to the shop. love the disproportion of the lily with regard to the small ceramic vase. and yes i like some yellow in small doses!
if you're lucky enough to have a chimney piece at home, that would be an ideal playground.
