Module 3

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

Color is a property possessed by an object of producing different sensations on the eye as a result of the way it reflects, absorbs, or emits light. Color can effect human emotions in several different ways. Specific colors may have cultural or individual associations.The way people see colors, and the meanings of different colors can vary by different situations or different individuals.

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

       A theoretical aspect of color that is most fascinating to me is the idea that different colors could be interpreted and looked at in a completely different way depending on the person. A person may hate the color blue because it is the color of their most hated sports team, or they are afraid of the ocean. Either way, that persons emotions and feelings are going to be different than person b, who may love the color orange because it reminds him of halloween, and that makes his feelings and emotions positive. 

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

       I feel that the part of the video that impacted me most in regards to color and it's effects on emotions came when artist June Redfern talked about her love hate relationship with her art. It was very apparent that she had strong emotions towards the works she did and did not like. You could really tell all of her emotions were bursting through her work with her keen use of color. 

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

          I feel that the part of the video that impacted me most in regards to color and it's effects on emotions came when the narrator began talking about the renaissance. What I found most interesting about this segment was that the new forms art coming out during the renaissance, changed the way people questioned religion, and life. This was so mainly because no one had ever seen art like this before, and it was revolutionary, to say the least.
