So[!] SAND and all it's variants has always been my favourite colour. My clothes are mostly sand, white, black and grey. Lately i have been silk screen printing quite a bit, black on sand colour material. Yawnnn, but there is method to my madness. This morning we woke up to a overcast windy day, just as we thought summer has arrived. The first thing I saw was my beloveds eyes. His eyes are amazing, they change with the weather, his mood, state of the heart, sometimes even with his bank balance, but always they are blue and today it is Indigo blue. Just then it dawned on me, i'm not so scared of colours, i actually like a colour other than sand - BLUE, and have been wearing it for years. Jeans are classified as INDIGO blue.
We have nothing blue in our house, everything is shades of white and sand, with hints of red, actually not only a hint, we have one very red wall in the lounge, but today i am going to change that and print something in blue, indigo blue!
