Color My World

Red: anger
Orange: fire
Yellow: happy
Green: envy
Blue: sad
Purple: royalty
Black: death
White: baby powder

I find it interesting how we were taught to associated colors with emotions right away as little kids. Eeyore is always sad, that’s why he’s blue. Big Bird and Winnie the Pooh are mellow yellow. Elmo and Tigger are red, orange, and always excited!

Apart from coloring my emotions, I like matching colors with each other–another designing essential! One of my guilty pleasures is color palettes. I could lose track of time sorting through color palettes and committing my favorite ones to memory.
