Colours of a raw vegan summer in the garden

click to enlarge and fully appreciate

Have you ever been to colourlovers.com? I have an account there where I go to play with colours, invent and name new ones, create palettes and patterns and generally have lots of fun mucking around.

This morning I went there and made a new palette called Raw Vegan Summer to celebrate this gorgeous summer we are having here in New Zealand, and all we are able to grow. It is very cool at colourlovers.com, you can name colours, and then create palettes, then make patterns up - the one above is called raw vegan gorgeously, and the palette it is from is called raw vegan summer, where I have named each colour according to which item in my garden it represents.

raw vegan summer

raw tomato

raw zucchini flower

raw carrot

raw cucumber (skin)

and raw radish.

The other cool thing about colourlovers.com is that you can download the palettes and use them in any of your graphics programmes, like Xara and Photoshop, or to get all the information to use them in web pages etc. You can read all about how to do that here.

Oh, and by the way, using colourlovers.com is totally free! Pretty cool, eh?
