I have always been infatuated with color ever since I was a child. Color gives life, love, anger and many more emotions to a painting or a piece of art that an artist created. Without color life would be dual and plain, like a poor acted black and white film with no real plot. I found it real interesting how Huxley talked about Hallucinations and how true a color can be and his take on life. How Dorothy’s life in Kansas is like the world around us, Grey. I would have to say that colors can be overwhelming sometimes but so can everything in large doses.
I must say that I feel very strongly with the quote stated by John Gage, “The Feeling that verbal language is incapable of defining the experience of color.” I agree with the quote because sure you can write about a sunset on the flat ocean while on a cruise, but to experience it and to see the blends of red, fuchsia, blue and orange and then that quick flash when the sun goes down cannot be written. It can only be seen or expressed with color to get the full beauty.
