Color Photography As Art

Ideas for redecorating my room, easy/fun question?
I’m moving soon! And finally I’ll be able to paint my room!
It can be a mix between colors to, like stripes, different colors on different walls, whatever, just throw me some ideas!
I’m going to have a modern room (going to get a modern bed frame from ikea, as well as some modern sheets) I like simplicity modern, like straight lines and such.
Oh and Im 14, and totally not girly. I’m into photography, music, art, drawing, all that stuff.
Colors I like(but go ahead and pick your own):
Sea Green
Grayish Green
Navy Blue
Black
Yellow
…
Any decorating/painting ideas? OOOH PICTURES WOULD NE NICE!
If you like modern and simple, paint all the walls the same color.
My suggestion would be a paint color like Glidden Sea Spray https://www.glidden.com/color/color-palette.do
I would get simple black frames like these http://www.target.com/Set-Elite-Poster-Frames-Black/dp/B001IMTU96/qid=1249804470/ref=br_1_5/191-5834292-1780558?ie=UTF8&node=13682421&frombrowse=1&rh=&page=1 (I’d get 4-8 frames) and fill them with black and white photos like these. I’d aim to get posters all the same size with a white border, so they really pop.

500 Figures in Clay: Ceramic Artists Celebrate the Human Form $15.39 It’s an absolutely unequalled photographic gallery: no other book has ever presented such a varied, captivating collection of contemporary ceramics based on the human form. The works range from representational to abstract, from artful realism to provocative surrealism, and many of them come from leaders in the field such as Judy Fox, Kurt Weiser, and Andy Nasisse. Kay Yourist has produced female forms that are smooth, minimalist vessels with only the slightest hint of breasts and belly. The simple, rounded features of Diane Lublinski’s black-and-white figures possess a fun, clown-like whimsy. Michael A. Prather’s mournful ceramic portraits have frowning faces and pointed dunce-like heads in a muted color palette. Many of the ceramics come with detail images and illuminating artist’s commentary. |
