Description

The fourth month of the year, April is a sign that spring has definitively arrived. Although the weather can be quite a mixture (at least in the Northern Hemisphere), this month represents a time of full emergence and growth. Ever heard of the saying, “April showers bring May flowers”? It’s true. April provides the gust that spring needs to bloom and flourish. That being said, I'm happy to announce that this month's theme "Bloom"!

HEX: 756650 / ffc1bd / c9afd1 / b5e2fa / deeb9f
RGB: 117,102,80 / 255,193,189 / 201,179,209 / 181,226,250 / 222,235,159

Rules:

- Please submit your piece by 11:59 PM AKST April 30th.
- Use all five colors shown on the template to create your piece. Pure black is not allowed, however, pure white is.
    -Blending is fine, but please directly pick the color if you are working digitally. For the traditional artists, please try to match the colors as closely as you are able. This also means you must make sure that the canvas or paper you use either matches one of the colours in the palette. We will no longer be accepting pieces where the background paper colour does not fall within the scheme! (Sorry!)
- You may make multiple pieces and submit them to our gallery, but choose only one to enter the voting (please let us know which one you want us to use! If you do not specify, we will only enter your first submission into the voting.)
- Please submit to the featured section of the Colour-Schemes gallery so everyone can see and so it's officially entered in the challenge! We will move the challenges to the appropriate folder ourselves. You can of course reply here with a link, too, because then we have happy confirmation.

Notice: Please mention in your artist's comments that your piece is for this Challenge!

The colors are so nice, yeah. It should, it's probably because of the Easter egg colors.
