Express feelings or needs through art · D7.1

Use color to describe a feeling

Words do not quite fit what you want to express.

Everyday practice

Try these steps

1. Choose colors, words naming colors, or materials that appeal to you.
2. Make a mark or arrangement that represents your experience in your own way.
3. Add a label if useful; colors have no fixed emotional meaning you must follow.

An example

I use two overlapping colors for mixed feelings and write what each means to me.

Reflect

Did the image communicate something words alone did not?

Next time

Keep it private or share only the explanation you choose.
