The fullness of blue combined with the
power of red creates blue-violet. It is the dark-
est hue on the color wheel and contains no
black to diminish its innate power.
Combinations using this color symbolize
authority and regal inspiration. Likened to
the deepest blue-black plums of summer,
blue-violet combined with its complement,
yellow-orange, creates a most striking color
scheme. This lush combination suggests roy-
alty and is seldom used outside a daunting
environment.
