COLOR TALK By Susan Anderson

On Saturday from 1:30 to 3:30 pm (TBA)

The astonishing power of colour is everywere; it sends signals that are both subtle and complex.  We respond to these signals from the gut, because colour is so critical to the choices we make and because we live in a world with more colour options than ever. Because colour can help you communicate as well as cross generational and cross cultural uses of colour.

                I would like to present to you a small introduction to the world of colour not only Picture1from a scientific stand point but its psychological meanings and messages as well as its many applications within our interior space but also our wardrobe. As a designer of area rugs and fabrics for many years catering to the Interior design industry, and currently as a college instructor, Susan Anderson has combined information from numerous sources it will give you more insight towards how colour is critical to the choices we all make.
