Blue

Blue. Blue is the color of the ocean. Blue is something that can calm people down. It carries connotations of water, and waves, and regularity. When things get crazy, when you can't concentrate and things are all over the place, blue is the color that people like to think of. The visions of the ocean, thinking of the waves, the noise, the smells...it just brings a sense of peace when things are all over the place. Blue is an amazing color, it's better than black or red. In fact, it might just be better than all the other colors. What other color has the ability to calm you with visions of the ocean? But then you have the flip side, the dark personality of the color blue. The color blue is also associated with sadness. More often than not, when someone is sad they will turn to blue to express themselves. Picasso's Blue Period is a great example of this. Picasso was going through a rough patch, and glazed all his paintings from that period with blue. It represented his sorrow. Blue. What a wonderfully expressive color.
