What colour is yours?
Never had I thought of such thing. After been living for more than 2 decades, only realising that there are other colours. Or maybe it’s because we are so drowned into own busyness of life, that’s why such question never pops up. Or maybe you had encountered before, have you?
It’s about the colour that you paint. And it needs you to travel back in times when you were a small lil’ kid at kindergarten or maybe lower primary school. When doing colouring on human, what colour do you use? Human skin I meant, the face, hand, etc.
I used orange. But then I was very surprised to hear other colours. There are yellow, pink and brown. Yes, brown across all races. I don’t mean racist here, but when some of us were small…maybe we already born creative, we use orange for the chinese, brown for malay and darker hue for indian. Afterall, those were the colours taught in school and also from textbooks. So, we concluded that different school taught different colours. Or maybe, it’s really up to that child’s observation and understanding to determine what colour to apply on.
Unless you are from a richer family, then you are lucky enough to have the 24pcs staedler colour pencil. For majority, we only use the 12pcs colour pencil until we are grown up to higher levels and have more creative sense, and to play with shading.
Now it makes me wonder if there are other colours. I’m really curious. After last night casually talking with friends, discovering such a discovery. So, what colour is yours?
