I often use strong complimentary color schemes for my paintings. For this one I started with orange/reds and blue/greens and watched as the colors evolved toward the greens and yellows. I had painted a study of a woman in a wild print mumu type of dress and her clothing was the initial inspirition for this color scheme. You never know where the inspirition will come from -- you need to be open to new ideas. Even the angular shape came from her clothing.
