Colours and energy

Different colours communicate different energies. Watercolours provide great opportunities to share the subtleties of certain colours and their nuances. Our way of interpreting colours is related to our emotions. Colors can make us feel happy or sad… they can make us feel hungry or relaxed. 

Occasionally I like to focus on colours to share some positive energies.

In this new painting I used blue for the sky and snow on the mountains.   Blue is associated with calmness and security.  It has been documented to lower heart-rate, foster relaxation and increase productivity.

In the bottom of the painting there will be a green field and a few flowers. Green is the easiest color for the human eye to process. It’s easy to look at and is associated with growth, nature, and new beginnings. It can also be a very relaxing color for some, which is why you’ll see it used in a lot of leisure and “zen-like” design.

This painting of the rockies in background should be completed in the coming days.


This painting will be framed in an 8 panel old wooden window.  I'm preparing for the "Art in the Park" that will be held at the Central Experiment Farm on August 11th.

Have a great week,
Danielle
