Vivacious Red



I have finished some PS projects but I still haven't taken photos! Coming soon I promise!
In the meantime I stumbled across what started out to be a craft journal in which I have made some notes about colour and colour theory. So here is what I recorded for...

VIVACIOUS RED

  • Powerful, the most emotional colour
  • Excitement, Intensity, Fervour
  • Anger, Aggression, Passion, Love, Bravery, Blood, Strength, Life & Fire
  • Reflective, great luminous effect
  • Increases blood pressure, increases pulse and breathing rate, increases muscle activity
  • Stimulates the brain

In art it is

  • an attention grabber
  • dominant feature or focal point
  • if as an accent place it so it doesn't detract from the focus
