Dreaming in a Pastel "La La Land"

1/15/2017

Right now, I'm really into shades of pink, blue and purple and all the ways they beautifully blend together. I guess I'm never letting go of the whole Rose Quartz and Serenity as the 2016 Colors of the Year trend! Greenery is cool, but these pastel hues will always have a dreamy place in my heart. Just check out this actual sunset I saw on an evening run!

These sensational shades also crop up in my mother's hydrangeas. Can you believe this range of cotton candy colors is all on one single plant?

This past weekend, my boyfriend and I got the chance to see "La La Land," and let me just say...wow! That movie is amazingly gorgeous, both visually and in the story itself! I won't give any plot points away, but my favorite color scheme was amazingly represented!

Naturally, I had to create a few pieces of my own inspired by this amazing film!

Remember, y'all, "A bit of madness is key to give us color to see. Who knows where it will lead us? And that's why they need us. So bring on the rebels, the ripples from pebbles, the painters, and poets, and plays...here's to the fools who dream!"

Wow! Everything about this post is beautiful! I love those colors as well, and your photos are beautiful - that's awesome that you were able to see that sunset on your run! And your mom's hydrangeas are incredible. I haven't seen La La Land yet, but I really need to! Everyone says it's awesome. And your illustrations from it are phenomenal, Brittney! Always love seeing your work. :)
