nesting robin round one and the perfect flag red

March round one of the nesting robin was to use a complementary color for the color harmony and for the technique we were to use squares or rectangles. Here is my piece with the addition of a checkerboard. I used colors that had black added to them so they are a little dark but I don't want the entire piece real bright. In the future I will add both dark and light colors so this should work well.


In the hunt for the perfect flag red I did 5 samples today. I think I'm pretty close.
