Canid Posted December 7, 2003 Report Posted December 7, 2003 As we were asked in the Cabaret room what our favourite colours were, I thought I'd do a little colour association.. thing .. These are the images and thoughts that pass by for each of these colours. I'd be interested to compare them to other peoples' if someone wants to do the same thing below. White A pastey nothing, Flour. Eggs. Sunless skin on human legs. A soft discintegration down. A hard surface slapping cold - a loveless crown. Yellow A confusion of sunlight and sick. Good and bad. Flowers and chemicals. Warm but dirty. Beauty and ugliness combined in each way. Red Bold and forward, Agression and life, Beauty and elegance But dark. Frightening. Drawing. Purple Warm or cold - not both. Indifferent, unyielding. Stain. Rich. Looming cloudish background. Blue Cold and bright. Happy. Icy eyes and pretty tinges. Wealth and open space. Isolated. Green Life. Plants. Richness and joy. Nature, oceams and warmth. Sunlit leaves and forests, Jungles. Hot and primeval. Fresh. Beautiful and versitile. Brown Earthy. Warm. Rough texture. Natural. Rich smells. Home. Black Enclosed and secure. Warmth. Calm and aware. Nightcreatures. Alone but near others.
Yuki Kokoro Posted December 8, 2003 Report Posted December 8, 2003 Interesting idea, and you did it very well. I liked green being "Hot and primeval" and the way you did a texture, smell, and visuals for brown. Here's my contribution: (composed in Haiku) Lush, refreshing, wet Forests and mountains and seas Green is vibrant life Rich, deep, yet distant Soft velvet and royalty Elegant Purple Love and hot anger The color of emotion Life blood and pain: Red Unobtrusive, dark Black: the respite from color Shelter, hurt... or change. Easy to shatter Innocence or harmony Fragile blending - White Soft water, harsh skies The infinite shades of Blue’s Reflective facets Comforting, gentle Woods and earth, rock and valley Home feels a warm Brown Bright, screaming intense Vivid and striking alert Orange is pushy (For Big Pointy Stick ) Coolly refreshing A novelty and pleasure Glass and water: Clear
