I'm attracted to pastel and natural colors. The colors for all my clothes are natural colors. I think that this color palette describes my personalities, which is mellow and go with the flow. Even though I love the city life, nature has a special place in my heart, which is why my color palette has a lot of earthy tones. Blue is the color of ocean and the sky. Green is the color of trees and mountains. Brownish red is the color of wood. Black and white make everything balance and make everything stand out. It has calming effect when I see all these colors come together. Please see the slide show below for the four compositions I created with these five colors.

Reflection of secret life of colors
There are so many colors with different hues and shades. I have never questioned how people discovered or made the color during the old times. It was very fascinating to see how colors are discovered and made through this book. Each color has a story behind it. The one I found the most interesting was purple. I didn't know seashells could produce purple dyed, and it takes 250,000 seashells to produce one ounce of dye, which is very expensive. That's why purple means loyalty and power. People made a lot of efforts to produce all the different and unique colors. Either using chemicals or insects, the creation process is very creative.
