To do this exercise, you will need to read select passages below. I have tried to arrange these in pairs, so you can see two very different authors dealing with similar subject-matter. When you have finished, attempt to create a similar passage in the exercise below--but imitate a different author's style. 1  Passage #1: Hemingway passage contrasting peaceful and dangerous aspects of the sea. 2  Passage #2: Homeric passage contrasting peaceful and dangerous aspects of the sea.
Burgundy colour can be combined with dark neutral colours such as black, grey, and dark blue. For an office look, you can combine a burgundy blouse or shirt together with a dark suit, whereas if you wear a burgundy skirt, combine it with a black shirt. Burgundy is a great choice when it comes to cocktail dresses. In this case, choose a shade of burgundy where either the blue or purple nuances dominate.
Since burgundy is a power color, very rich and strong, it will pair well with: beige, white, gold, pale blue. It is made of blue and red, so it will clash with it's opposites that are: most greens, purples, reds, and all oranges or yellows except antique gold. In terms of clothing and using the color of burgundy, the above is true. If you are creating a school colors set, or logo, then setting the burgundy off with off white, white, yellow or gold would be optimum. Anshu Mudgal, Pursued a course in Textile Design.
