Color Changes Mood and Feeling

These two vibrant, colorful paintings are identical except for their colors … So their structures are the same, their composition, but the hue (color) is different.  Which one do you like?  How does the difference in color change the feeling of the image?  I get such dissimilar feels from each of these.

Is there anything you would like to share about how each of these affect you?  Do you have any names?  When I am working with a digital image, often I play with shifting the whole hue/color of the painting to see what grabs me, which version sings to me.  This was one where 2 very disparate versions each spoke to me very loudly, clearly and insistently.  Usually I choose one version and then that composition is locked into that color for good.  All other versions are banished forever.

When 2 distinct translations each speak very strongly to me, then I wait until the allure of one disappears … then we have a winner.  Neither of these deferred …  they each insisted … so I am sharing them with you to hear what you say.  I would love to hear how the different colorations speak to you .. and of course, if you have any ideas for names, I would appreciate hearing them. Thank you for stopping by! I would love to hear about you!!

    Diane,
    The green one give me a feeling of calm. It reminds me of the great outdoors, the woods.. reminds me of all the natural sights and sounds you hear when taking a walk in wilderness.

    The pink/purple one reminds me of high school when black lights were cool! Psychedelic man! It also sort of disturbs me. Like I can’t or don’t want to look at it for a long time at ALL~ What’s that all about?

    This was an interesting idea.

    names? Wilderness Madness
    Black Light Psychosis

    Martine2323 said: Name VIII , I like the name HERA. The painting has a mythical presence to it. It captures your attention w/out overpowering.

    Martine2323 said: For Name IX – what about Avidity . the flow of the colours is wonderful. the lights – embrace. t he darks – hint of caution.

    Thank you so much!

    I find the interaction of geometry and colour facinating as light itself is a frequency and interacts according to mathematical priciples.
