  3. Blue You know why water makes us feel relaxed? Because its colour is blue. This soothing colour relaxes the mind, lowers the blood pressure and helps in reducing anxiety. Choose lighter shades of blue for a cool and astringent effect. Several artists use the colour blue with warm colours such as brown, tan and yellow for neutralizing the physiological effects of warm and cool colours.

  4. GREEN Green symbolizes nature and imparts a calming effect on our system. In the presence of green, one feels more relaxed and the blood histamine levels increase, which decrease allergy and dilated blood vessels. Pale yellow-green and beige-green is perfect for wall art and home decor.

  5. WHITE White depicts clarity and freshness, if you are in doubt and confused, then white will clear all of your thoughts and let you make the right decisions in life. It offers peace of mind, hence perfect for pregnant women. Bright colours when surrounded by fields of low- intensity colours such as white and grey complement each other perfectly. Commercial artist Chloe Planinsek is a master in using low- intensity colours in her abstract art which makes her paintings so expressive and harmonious.

  6. YELLOW Choose such art in which there is a contrast of hues. Some artworks are so attractive because they use the right contrast of yellow. This colour is very lively and makes you feel energetic. So jump start your day with a stunning piece of art that includes yellow.

  7. GREY Grey can often be mistaken to be dull or depressing. The reality is that it is very calm, soothing and a harmonious colour, especially when blended into other colours. In cloud inspired artworks when grey is paired with blue and white, it creates such a relaxing atmosphere.
