The Aesthete's Alphabet - Y is for yellow


Yellow is commonly associated with gold, wealth, sunshine, reason, happiness, optimism and pleasure. In short - a happy colour. The color yellow is also the colour of the mind and the intellect. 
This colour relates to acquired knowledge. It is the colour which resonates with the left or logic side of the brain stimulating our mental faculties and creating mental agility and perception. Being the lightest hue of the spectrum, the colour psychology of yellow is uplifting and illuminating, offering hope, happiness, cheerfulness and fun. In the meaning of colours, yellow inspires original thought and inquisitiveness. Yellow is the best colour to create enthusiasm for life and can awaken greater confidence and optimism. So there you go - what's not to love about yellow!


































Well, it's been a long haul, but the Aesthete's alphabet is nearly at an end. I do, however, still have "Z" to contend with and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Have a great week ahead.

Till next time
