Flame Drawing Images

For this art program, Flame, I wanted to use the combination of colors instead of drawing actual pictures to represent emotions. Instead, I looked into colors and their represented feelings and emotions to create images that may relate to how someone is feeling. In some studies, people who struggle with mental illnesses or emotional distresses. In my one image, I wanted to illustrate depression, and the many forms it can take. I used dark blue in the background to show the depressive aspects that may not always be present, but still lingers underneath other emotions currently being expressed. Then I drew wispy colors of happier colors, such as yellow, pink, and green, to display the varying, fast changing emotions that may be a "high" to the individuals, but still have that constant "low". As for the other image, it is a little less deep, and portrays happiness, and elation. This is more hectic, with a bright green in the background for vibrancy in attitudes, with splashes of yellow, light blue, and pinks. These colors together can suggest energy, faith, love, and fertility or freshness, etc. I think that if some people like to express their feelings through colors, then even this can be helpful to them, and it's also an entertaining program!
