Different colors can effect our emotions. In the video they talked about how intense colors can be used to express strong emotions, and how Vincent Van Gogh used colors that clashed to express how he disliked a cafe. The painter featured in the video, June talked about how she used white paint first because it reflected the colors off of the canvas, and how she splashed turpentine onto the canvas to make the paint runny, I thought this was very interested it looked like she was ruining her painting but it turned out beautifully with a simple sweep of a brush or cloth. I also thought it was very interesting that the intensity of the color depends on how the paint is made, and that the finer the particles in the paint the more intense the color would be.
What made the biggest impact on me in regards to how color effects the emotions was the clashing of colors Van Gogh used to represent anger and distaste. Also I just find it very overwhelming all the different shades of colors and how in a single painting there can be so many different pigments and shades of one color.
