You can’t use those colors. Those colors don’t go together. Neutrals go with every thing. It doesn’t match. That’s not the way to do it. It’s not traditional.

Have you ever heard these comments before?

Many people have a psychological fear of colors or a variety thereof as if there is some rule or law or principle that determines what is the “right and proper” use of colors and not conforming to such is a “mistake” and manifests undesirable results which are wrong and bad and as such reflects undesirably on their personality. This fear is caused by their exposure, background, and misunderstanding of the characteristics, physics, aesthetics, and possibilities of colors.

There are unlimited combinations of colors that have never been conceived and used and can produce beautiful results. Colors are determined by lighting which is the most important and prominent aspect of aesthetics. Yet, many people insist upon staying in their conceived box and severely limiting themselves as to results of colors.

  To explore, experiment, and seek new and different uses of colors opens up one to unlimited beautiful possibilities that greatly enhance one’s environment. Traditional is not always the best. Don’t let cultural conditioning, other’s opinions, or fear stand in your way of achieving higher and more beautiful results. The fear is all in your head. Get rid of it.

I have never seen, heard of, or read of any one who became ill or had to be taken to an emergency room because of colors. Colors do not bite. Colors are not a source of infectious diseases. Colors do not inflect pain.

Get over it! It doesn’t cost any more money. Do it!

  Expand and enjoy your life.
