My Life In Color on Black, White & Gray Wednesday (3/15/23) | HIGHLIGHTING THE COLOR FOR THE DAY

The idea for My Life In Color - Highlighting the Color For the Day evolved from a challenge based on colors assigned to each day that was the concept of a former Hive member. I decided to create my own version. It's not a challenge; just sharing many of my personal photos and digital drawing images in my collection.

With that said, today is Black, White, and Gray. I'll be sharing all colors of the spectrum that's black, white, and gray, or a mixture. I've read how colors affect our lives. Many of us navigate toward certain hues due to perception or our subjective view. This has been done for years. In different societies, colors are adapted for specific reasons, including their customs.

My choice of colors are found in my color chart below in which I assigned a different day of the week with a particular color or color blend.

According to colorpsychology, black can have a different symbolic meaning for each individual. In that sense, we can react differently to every color. For example, in the Feng Shui concept, black can harmonize your surroundings, no matter which ones you choose, as such your living areas, work environment, or any place of important to you. Black can be associated with water elements. By association means the color can project either power, calmness, or mysterious. It even can have a grounding effect and less overpowering when used in moderation. ¹

The color black can possibly have powerful effects and be associated with an individual's sophisticated lifestyle. We've all become accustomed to business people wearing black. The positive traits of black may include feelings of strength, protectiveness, comfortable, sophistication, and mysterious.

However, on the opposite end, the color black is also associated with possessing a dark mental state or negative effect on our lives. ¹

When I think of the colors black, white, and gray in my daily life, I love to decorate with them since they blend well with other colors. Although they are strong colors in a sense, they seem to fade into the background when paired with the stronger colors of red, blue, green, yellow, and orange. These are powerful combinations in apparel.

I'd be pleased if you'd view my images for today set out below.
