Colour plays an important role in relating to the mind, body
and the emotional state of the viewer. The influence of colour has a huge
impact on the human behaviour and responses, it drives many factors from
personal emotional growth through to latest fashions and primarily sets the
schemes for present interiors. Colour responses are subjective and we all relate and gravitate to our favourite hues depending on how it makes us feel. Below are examples of images that I have photoshopped and their meanings.
