Colorful Writing

Today I'm going for some visuals.

Writers don't have the luxury of visuals. We must convey color in our writing. We do that with descriptions, mood, emotions, the weather...

Below are some ways to use color to convey these things.

YELLOW

We all associate yellow with flowers - growth and spring.






Yellow can also be classic and illumionous.








It can be vibrant and convey energy.







BLUE

Blue can convey a beautiful day.






It can also show strength and power.







It can convey peace and flowing.






RED

Red is vibrant and alive.







It also causes things to stand out and attract attention.






Red also conveys mystery.










GREEN

Green is associated with plants and growth.







It is also refreshing and moist.







Green also conveys energy and movement.






ORANGE

Orange is most often associated with fall and changes.




It can cackle with energy and spark.






It can convey bounty and plenty.









PURPLE and PINK

Purple is the color or royalty.





It conveys passing and closure.







It is like a blast of cold heat and power.





And it conveys softness and magic.










How are you coloring your words today?
