There are two types of people in the world. Those who like purple and those who don’t. I’m joking, of course, but it does seem as if the women I meet are rarely on the fence about the color. They either love it and seek it out, or despise it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A couple of years ago I purchased a purple hand painted canvas backdrop via the internet. The color turned out to be not so much purple but periwinkle. In other words, the color had too much blue in it. I wanted more red in the mix for a darker, richer purple. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The difference between violet and purple is that violet appears in the visible light spectrum, or rainbow, whereas purple is simply a mix of red and blue. Violet has the highest vibration in the visible spectrum. While violet is not quite as intense as purple, its essence is similar. Generally the names are interchangeable and the meaning of the colors is similar. <\/p>\u2014Empowered by Color<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The “easy” fix was to paint with a textured roller over the periwinkle backdrop with a variety of purple colors. I did not completely obliterate the original color, I just added more purple hues to the canvas until I was happy with the result. Purchasing paint samples from Home Depot came in handy. Not needing to buy a quart of paint for each desired color enabled me to be liberal with adding a variety of light, medium and dark purples to the canvas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While painting I’d leave finished backdrops nearby, such as the rolled up vibrant green<\/a>, so I could make sure that all the colors complimented each other. Sometimes I’d add bits of color from one backdrop to another. The apricot backdrop<\/a> is in process on the floor. The backdrops need to be photographed in between coats because they look different on the floor versus in a photograph. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Purple combines the calm stability of blue and the fierce energy of red. Because the color purple is created with a strong warm and a strong cool color, the color retains both warm and cool properties. <\/p>-Jennifer Bourn, Bourn Creative<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Selfie time. I was in the process of painting the chalk paint blue-gray backdrop<\/a> when I noticed my purple t-shirt blended with the purple backdrop. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
