I’m going to spend this week finding color inspiration in my every day. I love looking back at my
color boards when starting a new project – the mix and contrast of colors within a photo can be surprisingly pleasant and sometimes unexpectedly beautiful.

Today I see a beautiful range of colors in this grouping of freshly pick summer squash.
The squash in this photo offers a wide range of yellows, from a pale yellow, almost white, in the highlights to an orange-yellow color in the shadows. I can see a deep, dark green at the top of the squash where the stem meets the fruit. The stem is bright green dotted with spots of light green and yellow. The off-white towel, the squash ends (and scars), and the scratched, well-used cutting board add neutral browns and light tones. Unexpectedly the pink-red stripe of the towel adds a perfect bit of contrast.
Hoping your Monday is a good one!
Be wonderfully odd!
