Color Psychology

The web article Color Psychology explains how every color has a meaning behind it. I discovered that we are connected to color. Colors are everywhere, its the sight we always see. Most of the time, the color we choose represent the mood we are in. For an example, my temporary favorite color is red. I am in a warmth mood because I feel cozy wearing a jacket while some people wear shorts. Therefore, the Color Psychology can be used everyday.

The web article for 'Color in Advertising' is the colors have different shadings. Like for an example yellow, red, and orange are related. The color and mood in the ads usually try and include feelings. Like the brighter the color it shows the happiness while with black its a neutral feeling. Sometimes, color swatches help represent the texture of a material as well. Color in advertising help us visually feel the object from a picture.
