1) Color is the pigments used in a work of art. It was said that bold colors can be used to show a stronger emotion. Color effects the way someone views a work of art. Take a painting of the sky for example: using light pinks and yellows this photo can be thought of as beautiful and picturesque, using dark reds and blacks it can become angry and haunting.
2) Using color alone to evoke feeling is very interesting to me. Many psychological studies have been done to decipher how and what colors effect peoples emotions and attitudes. It makes me feel as if an artist has to become psychoanalytical while painting and I quiet like this concept.
3) What impacted me most in the video Color was Van Goah's idea that you can express a strong emotion by using bold colors. this was put into play in Mark Rofco's work of art that used only deep shades of reds and maroons to show a hatred for a restaurant.
4)What impacted me most in the video Feelings: Emotions and Art was Goya's "The Black Paintings". I thought it was so intriguing how he created such grotesque works of art as a protest and the coloring he used was so horrifyingly beautiful that I cannot escape them. It really did make me feel as if I were in one of his very own nightmares.
