INTRODUCTION

“Hey there, These roses are for you”, felt good, I know roses are meant to please different moods of people. Roses are the symbol of love and happiness, mainly because of its colour – red, red is the colour of love and affection.

Thus roses absorb the charisma of the colour red and reflect love, peace, and happiness. Although, there are roses of other different colours, the aura and feeling red roses deliver cannot be found in any other coloured roses.

In China, the colour red is also believed as the colour of good luck. Whereas black colour is associated with strength, seriousness, and strong emotion. Traditional meanings associate crows as bad omen, death, and dark witchcraft and that is the reason why black colour is associated as a sign of bad luck and evil spirits.

• RK Laxman, an Indian cartoonist, illustrator, and humorist, in an interview elaborated his affection for crows by mentioning that “the crow attracted me because it was so alive on the landscape. In our garden it stood out black against the green trees, blue sky, red earth and the yellow compound wall. Other birds are timid. They try to hide and camouflage themselves. But the crow is very clever. It can look after itself very well.At age three I began to sketch crows. I tried to draw their antics. My mother saw this and encouraged me. She told me that Lord Shanisvara used the crow for his mount. He was a very powerful God, she added, “If you draw His crow, surely He will send you good luck.”

CONCLUSION

Don’t you think? that colour has nothing to do with emotions. I  personally believe that colours don’t show or reflect any emotion or energy its only humans and their perception about different colours. I feel this perception can be due to past experiences attached to that particular colour that makes them feel a certain way about that colour.

Sometime back in the past red colour made them happy then they will always associate red colour as joy or black made them sad then they will always feel the same way about black. People have different experiences, a different perception so the association of the different emotion with different colours. Colours don’t reflect any emotion only peoples perception does.
