Concept of Cool Color

Updated: Jul 22, 2023

What is cool color?

Cool colors are typified by blue, green, and light purple. They can calm and soothe. Where warm colors remind you of heat and sunshine, cool colors remind you of water and sky, even ice and snow.


The use of cool colors in painting can produce different effects and correlate with emotional expression. This section of the painting topic not only allows children to understand what cool colors are and how to use them in emotional expression, but also let them use cool colors of different materials to paint the mood they want to express.


Cool colors can also be used to express different emotions and moods.

- Melancholy and Sadness: Cool colors are often associated with depressed, sad emotions. You can use blues and purples to express this mood.

- Calm and peaceful: One of the characteristics of cool colors is that they give off a calm and peaceful feeling. Using light blues and greens can convey a state of tranquility and relaxation.


Whether you use cool colors in your drawings or use them to express emotions, you can adapt them to your child's creative and emotional needs. Color is just a tool in emotional expression, the most important thing is personal style and creativity to express one's own thoughts and emotions. Every time they finished their work in class sharing, the children also put in a lot of effort to explain their creative ideas. Teachers often say that if you can speak it, it means you really understand it! The kids are really great
