Connie Prince's April 2023 Designer Tip

 

  

Over the next few months I'd love to dive into color theory a bit.  We will be taking a look at the different color families and what they mean.  

This month's color is bright & energetic YELLOW!  Yellow is a primary color. 
 
Sunny shades of yellow bring to mind warm summer days or happy spring daffodils.  It is a color associated with hope, yellow ribbons tied around old oak trees.  These ribbons give families and loved ones hope of being reunited with an absent or missing loved one.  
 
Yellow isn't all sunshine and happiness, though.  Some associate it with illness and even cowardice! 

Here are a few layouts showcasing different shades of yellow.
