Rainbows Falling
For our color contemplation today we have a classic centered and graduated size drop design, although the treatment of the shapes and application of color is anything but classic.
Cecilia Leonini is this piece’s creator. Cecilia is extremely fond of color and seems to get most, if not all, the colors of the rainbow into the majority of her work.
So, what do you think? Does she depend too much on the riot of color here to carry the design? Or does she use it to spice up a classic composition of shapes alongside her other not-so-classic applications and design choices?
Perhaps you could be a better judge of her color sense if you see her body of work. Just jump on over to Cecilia’s Flickr photostream for an eyeful of color as well as seeing what joyful work she has available for sale in her Etsy shop.

I love Cecilia’s colors in all of her work. There is a water color sense to them, although more intense/bright. Also love her shapes and with this particular piece, the curved up and ‘torn’ bits take full advantage of the medium while adding an intriguing dimension to the work. As a viewer, I want to flip the pieces over to see what’s on the other side.
