THE THURSDAY POST: Colours speak louder than Words

Colours speak Louder than Words

RED

Red is the colour of fire and blood, so it is associated with energy, war, danger, strength, power, determination as well as passion, desire, and love.

Red is a very emotionally intense colour. It enhances human metabolism, increases respiration rate, and raises blood pressure. It has very high visibility, which is why stop signs, stoplights, and fire equipment are usually painted red. In heraldry, red is used to indicate courage. It is a colour found in many national flags.

Red brings text and images to the foreground. Use it as an accent colour to stimulate people to make quick decisions; it is a perfect color for 'Buy Now' or 'Click Here' buttons on Internet banners and websites. Red is widely used to indicate danger (high voltage signs, traffic lights). This colour is also commonly associated with energy, so you can use it when promoting energy drinks, games, cars, items related to sports and high physical activity.

Light red represents joy, passion, sensitivity, and love. 

Pink signifies romance, love, and friendship. It denotes feminine qualities and passiveness.

Dark red is associated with vigor, willpower, rage, anger, leadership, courage, longing, malice, and wrath.

Brown suggests stability and denotes masculine qualities.

Reddish-brown is associated with harvest and fall.

DREAM CATCHERS


In some Native American cultures, a dreamcatcher is a handmade object based on a willow hoop, on which is woven a loosenet or web. The dreamcatcher is then decorated with sacred items such as feathers and beads.

Storytellers speak of the Spider Woman, known as Asibikaashi; she took care of the children and the people on the land. Eventually, the Ojibwe Nation spread to the corners of North America and it became difficult for Asibikaashi to reach all the children. So the mothers and grandmothers would weave magical webs for the children, using willow hoops and sinew, or cordage made from plants. The dreamcatchers would filter out all bad dreams and only allow good thoughts to enter our mind. Once the sun rises, all bad dreams just disappear.

THE MAKING OF DREAM CATCHERS:

When dreamcatchers were originally made, the Ojibwe people used willow hoops and sinew or cordage made from plants. The shape of the dreamcatcher is a circle because it represents how giizis- the sun, moon, month- travel each day across the sky. There is meaning to every part of the dreamcatcher from the hoop to the beads embedded in the webbing.

The small outlet in d middle of the hoop is to allow the good dreams to pass through,  while the bad dreams are cought in the web, which disappear when sunlight hits the web.

The feathers hung at the bottom of the dream catcher, allow the good dreams to slide through softly onto the person asleep and protects them from negativity.
The resulting "dream-catcher", hung above the bed, is used as a charm to protect sleeping people, from nightmares.

Believe in it; and it shall be.

WHAT IS KRAYONISM* ?

#Krayonism*

Krayonism is an emotion. Krayonism is reaching out to someone through the medium of Art. It is the obsession for creativity. It allows you to open new aspects of your mind that reach out to the heart.

We all have an artist within us. It is not about being an expert at oil paintings, or a pro at acrylics, or a master at charcoal paintings and painting abstracts that we dont understand. It is not about possessing a Masters in Fine Arts degree, it is about the passion in finer arts, ideas, things that do not fix in a box, quirky inventions, kitsch designs, creative innovations. It is about doing everything that makes you really happy. Something that you'd come back home for.

Krayonism* is a state of rapture, an enigma. Pick a crayon today, close your eyes and feel what your mind tells you.
Krayonism* is Exploring your identity. And what better way, than pouring your thoughts out through the medium of magic called Colours!
