Do you change your enviornment or does your enviornment change you?

Art : How colors affect us

first fact about liking colors is memorise that you have for that color, you may love a certain color for example orange, you probably like this color because you had good situation in you life that has happened many time and there seems to be the color orange involved with this situation

- other colors are sensative to you eye and theycan agravate you.

-pink is a soft color, it makes you less agressive, i have heard in jails that they will paint the rooms pink on some of the walls, that is to have less fightes, you are not able to hit as hard in a pink room

-yellow is an agravating color, parent specialist always warn parents not to paint their childs room yellow, this color is agravating and the baby ends up crying alot more then it needs to.'

-blue and green shades are very relaxing colors, sometimes in paintind people mistake the b lues for sadness, but mostly painters want it to be very relaxing.

-red is an aggresive color, red makes you feel angry and bigger, fights usually happen in a red room,

- if there are 2 lines and one is painted red and one is painted blue, more people would buy at the red painted line

- there was also a study that showed if you put 2 teams versing eatheother (one red , one white or yellow ect.)and they are the same level, the red will have a bigger likley hood of winning, just because red makes them look bigger and more agressoive to the eyes

color blindness is also a big factor in seeing colors and the worls around us, it is a sexlinked trait which means it is usually in males and theere are # different types of color blindness, light color colorblindness whichis you cant tell the difference (for example)between a light blue and white. another color blindness is dark color colorblindness, for example black and purple. and the most sevire case is you cant see red or green at all you only see greys.

Brain: Language

-language plays a big role in seeing colors

-people have tested childrens who are just learning to talk and dont know the words for colors yet and seeing if they can spot the odd color out, they can easily.

- to us who have learned what yellow is , red , blue green, ect. we would of had a much harder time piking the color that is different.

- there was another study done in a tribal community, of about 20 people.they have different words for different colors because of their diverse language.

- these tribal people only had 4 words for the 11 colors that we have

-they put a ring of green dots on a poster and asked them to spot the odd one out. they did easliy.

-to us they would look all the same shade of green. they could do this because light green was in one catigory with light red and light purple, as for a little bit darker shade of green was in a different one of their catagorys of green orange darker red and blue.

- they next put a ring of green dots with an aparent blue dot in it, but blue and green have the same words for them, they couldnt see the odd color , to them they looked all the same.

-the part of your brain that teaches you languge also was seen to be conected to colors and how attracted you are to surtain colors.

colors , language, sight and how you were raised are key factures on how you view the world and art.
