Color Psychology

In the article I discovered that color influences a person's mental and physical state. Color is often associated with a person's emotions. All colors have different effects, they are categorized as warm colors and cool colors. Warm colors such as red yellow and orange can spark a variety of emotions ranging from comfort and warmth to hostility and anger. Cool colors such as green, blue and purple spark feelings of calmness as well as sadness. Different shades and tones also result in very different meanings. This all has to do with color psychology. More information about the psychology of color can be found on this page http://www.arttherapyblog.com/online/color-psychology-psychologica-effects-of-colors#at_pco=smlre-1.0&at_tot=4&at_ab=per-9&at_pos=1

This site below gives you information on the psychology of color. It gives you a short introduction about how we see color in our eyes. In this article you can also see how each color gives a different emotion and what certain colors symbolize. I love this site because it also tells you how colors influence  fashion and advertisements. They have a paragraph explaining observations and data on certain colors.
