"Teacher, how do you choose flowers to match colors?"

This issue focuses on the color matching skills of free flower works.

Student: Teacher, when choosing flowers, the color often bothers me. Any tips?

Teacher: What distinguishes different colors is hue, and the combination of colors is color matching. Free flowers have no specified type, and color becomes an important factor. Unify the work according to color matching, or highlight a certain part. Look at the "color circle" showing the color relationship in the picture below. Using "similar colors" with similar colors can easily give the work a sense of unity.

Student: This seems to reduce failure. Are there any other color matching methods?

Teacher: "Relative colors" can set each other off, but be careful not to be too strong.

Student: Ah, it's important to know the effect of color matching!

Teacher: In addition, the use of "warm color" and "cool color" is consistent with the theme of the work, which can better express what the author wants to express.

Impression of color.

Warm colors: yellow, orange, red and other colors that give people a warm feeling.

Impression: enthusiasm, spirit, summer, heat, warmth and so on.

Cool color: blue and other colors that make people feel cold.

Impression: calm, calm, winter, cold, refreshing, cool and so on.

Color matching effect

Similar colors: colors are easy to unify, and color changes can be shown slowly and carefully.

Relative colors: set each other off and become interesting. When the contrast is too strong, reduce a certain color or increase a darker color to make the whole work look more harmonious.

Teacher: When considering color matching, we should not only pay attention to the hue, lightness and saturation of flowers.

Student: Look at the picture below. It is also pink, bright and dark. Those with high saturation appear young, while those with low saturation appear plain and clean. Feel different?

Teacher: "Same color system" with the same hue, different saturation and lightness is easy to have a sense of unity, and it will not get tired of reading it, which often gives people an elegant feeling.

Color matching effect

Similar colors: colors are easy to unify, and they won't get tired of looking at them. Monotonous colors have a simple but elegant feeling.

Teacher: Let's see how to use the effect of color matching in flower arrangement.

Student: The use of flowers of the same color system enhances the overall sense of existence of the work, and the size, density and texture of flowers are easier to distinguish.

Teacher: When using contrasting colors, if the contrast is too strong, use flowers with low saturation or lightness to soften the work. This principle can also be applied to the choice of colors! (Flower ware is a part of the work)

Student: Only by knowing the method of color matching can we highlight the beauty of flowers!
