I didn't even realize that until I was doing a creative exercise where you put a whole spectrum of colors on a page and then quickly and intuitively "assign" emotions to them. I got to red and wrote "anger" and then started to realize that my work has no red in it--in fact, I needed a piece of red fabric for something and I had NONE. It was an amazing eye-opener for me because I had to work my way through my issues around anger in order to understand why I avoid that color. Now I'm working on incorporating that realization into my work, but also on playing with the color red. It's amazing what strong connotations color has for us!Michele/TextileTravelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13358754619610633763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17256618.post-64647574293597592682007-11-12T17:46:00.000+01:002007-11-12T17:46:00.000+01:00Neki, I love the green color trials.

I love all the green shades in nature but find it really hard to use.Annicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06093870569278972082noreply@blogger.com
