Niki de Saint Phalle

I was just looking at Niki de Saint Phalle, and her work is amazing! Her Tarot garden is what interests me most, as i am a big fan of Gaudi. While researching her i found that she was heavily influenced by Gaudi and wanted to create a similar thing, but by a woman, so there is a huge sculpture park in Italy that took 20 years to complete.

My first attempt at research, Youtube videos...

Red and Green should never be seen...

I'm sure there's a phrase 'Red and Green should never be seen', but looking at the colour wheel red and green are complimentary colours.. it looks like there's a bit of a debate about it on yahoo answers too, very strange..

Here Nolde is using shades of greens in some of his figures, (jesus and his followers) which gives an impression of sickness and sadness. He hasn't used green in the figures on the right, which appear to be the soldiers that captured Jesus and put him on the cross. They have much different feeling about them, just enforced by the colour of their skin.

Emil Nolde

Nolde has a very confident way of using colour; using a very warm palette to create a stunning feel.

Day & Night Pixar video!

I totally forgot about this, it was at the beginning of toy story 3! Something similar to this but simpler would be good for the 'day to night' story board.
