Color Theory - Gabe McFadden





My Color Theory project is a gif I made of the relatively famous painting Nighthawks by Edward Hopper. I used Photoshop to adjust the hue/saturation to make the colors much more extreme so the gif would have a bigger impact.

I tried to mix complementary and harmonious colors to make a really jarring color scheme. The colors in each frame of the gif all go together, in addition to each of the four frames matching with one another.

Check out the rest of the gifs I've made at gabemcfadden.com/gifs

  3. I like the colors you chose. They are bright and fun without being so bright that they are annoying. It's a cool take on a classic image
