This was a last-minute submission. I originally made a photo using all 3 complementary color pairs, then realized the rules allowed only 2.

I used red construction paper to make an origami rose and painted my hand green with Montblanc Irish Green ink when I could not figure out how to make an origami hand. It took 2 days to remove the color. The background is a red/green wallpaper on my MacBook screen, placed face-up on the table.

Nice image with the strong textures in the rose and hand. Perhaps having the background a single color (red) would be a stronger image.
