Colour is a universal element in art, and each paints a different story. Colour creates the composition, accentuates atmosphere, makes the mood and generally provides the attraction that draws people into the picture. Colour is ever-so variable and it can be subtle or vibrant, calm or vicious, taking the meaning to another dimension. Colour is not just visually pleasing to the eye, but thrives to enhance juxtaposition, symbolism, culture, and of course art. We see colour all around us, and in that we also see the simple beauty in life. So “Taste the Rainbow” in one particular colour...Blue.
Blue is the colour of the sky and the sea, so it relates to ocean life and the heavens; blue has often symbolized divinity, as well as height and depth. In Hindu art, the deity Krishna is probably the most famous of this type of depiction. Lord Shiva's neck has blue colour to show that the poison he took to save the world from destruction is still staying in his throat. However, blue can also identify with cold and death.
