A wandering and selective history of the colour scarlet.
This is my contribution to Light Grey Art Lab’s current exhibition “Color Anthropology“. The original is a scratchboard piece, with the colour added digitally.
Many thanks to my patrons, who helped me decide on colour placement when I lost the ability to decide!
There is some stunning art in the exhibition (Lincoln Green, Orange and Saffron are my favourites), which you can check out online if Minneapolis isn’t on your itinerary. The art is also available as prints through the Light Grey shop. Edit: The print is now available on Redbubble: Scarlet.
