Yellow or Green?
-
Aw so cute! Definitely the green for me. It really makes your illustration pop! The little boy's face and his toys stand out more and it feels fresher and more vibrant. Maybe if you made his skin tone really dark it would work better on the yellow? Love it!
-
Green!
If orange, then maybe you could try a less saturated orange...? Anyway, fantastic as always! -
Super adorable Gary! Definitely green for advertising, it makes all the other details pop. But if clients are planning to print it and hang in their homes, a neutral color will look more pleasing printed and hung in a nursery for example.

@Gary-Wilkinson Both look really good but The Green one compliments nicely with the boy’s skin and red box.
-
@Gary-Wilkinson I can see why your wife likes yellow. I think the drawings on the wall pop out more with the green wall while the purple spilled juice pops out more with the yellow (for obvious complementary reasons). I somehow prefer the green but I understand why the yellow is so appealing, it's warm but I like how the drawings stand out more on the green one.

Hi @Gary-Wilkinson, perhaps an off white wall with yellow floor?
-
I like the overall feel of the yellow background more. However, I definitely agree with the idea that for advertising your services; the green one might better serve the purpose because it pops more.
-
@Jeremy-Ross I like this idea. white with yellow floor!
-
I like the green one because it seems to pop more. I wonder if instead of greens you used blues instead.
-
@Gary-Wilkinson Maybe try the yellow one where the background is just a bit darker to help the character pop. I think the yellow one, at least for me, is more appealing as a color scheme, but the green one has a better contrast between the background and foreground.
-
@Gary-Wilkinson Man... this choice is just a matter of taste. Do I like complimentary or analogous schemes more... I'm going to go with the yellow, because my brain keeps trying to tell me that the green background with the red tray is "Christmas."
-
@Gary-Wilkinson Hmmm... interesting dilemma. I do like the feel of the yellow one more (personal pref because I love yellow and limited color schemes), BUT the green background does help the kid pop more (I also like the lighting). I think my problem with the green one is the red box; because of the contrast with the green, I feel like it's trying to compete for the viewer's attention.
Unless the box has to be red for any reason, I personally would go with the green background but make the box a cool or more desaturated color, so the warm colors are primarily on the kid's face/skin.
Regardless of choice, adorable picture!
