Color Theory and Emotional Effects

1. Describe Color and it's effects on emotions. Use the appropriate vocabulary of color in your posting.

1.       I’d say that color has a huge effect on your emotions such as “June Redfern” from the color video. As she was painting her art with the oil, she felt it wasn’t complete; she described it as violent which the mood of the colors was making it seem like that. June Redfern kept working on the colors until she got the exact feeling she wanted. 

2. What is a theoretical aspect of color that most intrigues/fascinates you? Why?

1.       What intrigues me about colors is that you can many varieties of them and they can tell judgment. In clothes, the colors we like help us choose our styles of clothing, electronics, colors of food etc. Maybe without color, we wouldn’t have too much judgment on a variety of things.

3. In the Color video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions?

1.       The biggest impact on me that the colors video had was when the artist on the boat was drawing the forest. He looked at the forest and drew the colors he saw and these were not the exact colors of the forest. The color he saw and drew was a shade of blue, pink, yellow and it came out looking really nice. 

4. In the Feelings video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions? 

1.       The biggest impact the emotion video had on me is the religion paintings. Specifically the one of the woman who is burning in hell at the beginning of the video. As I looked at the color of the flames, they looked pretty realistic and also the woman’s face of pain while she was being burned. It was pretty graphic and it gives you an idea what hell can actually be like.
