Who's not a fan of colours? Except when they start hurting your eyes...
Anyway, I have a list of colours below and their interpretations, taken from various books/websites. You pick either the positive or the negative path, and head on through them, picking one interpretation for each (separated by comma or "and"). Or if you're looking for a one-off challenge, just pick either interpretation for the colour, and write/art using one of the interpretations of that colour as your theme.
