Pretty in Pink...

Ever since I saw this photo on the Dolce Chic site... And painted this... I have been thinking about putting together a PINK post... What does PINK mean? For the answer... I went to the first blogger to ever show my art work and she just happens to be Expert Colour Consultant Just Imagine ... Here is her exact answer...
Oooooooooooh you’ll be sorry…………………
Pink is sugar sweet or it can be bold or racy!!!

Pink is a psychologically powerful colour!
It is the colour of calm confidence, even it’s more dramatic tones it is full of reassurance and always a constant positive energy.
It’s deliciously warm; a natural choice for babies rooms and fulfills the dreamy fairy tale romance and glamour for little princesses.
Pink can create a diverse range of décor styles from pretty and gentle to deep and sensuous and even exotic and spicy!!!!
Being a tint of red, it soothes rather than stimulates.
I have some interesting trivia on the colour pink……………
It has been used in jails “drunk tank pink” to calm violent prisoners. It is difficult for a person to be aggressive or angry in the presence of pink……..the heart muscles can’t race fast enough. It is a tranquilizing colour……even the colour blind are affected by pink. Although pink does have these affects….it is for the short term.
In the old old old old days the preferred colour to dress young boys was pink!!! Blue was for girls as it was considered the paler and more dainty of the too!!!
Is this what you were after??????? cos I can probably keep going on and on and on and on when it comes to colour.
