Green is considered the color of life itself. Indeed, in spring and summer, during the heyday of nature, everything is literally buried in greenery. And greenery is both future fruits and shelter from the heat of the sun and wild animals. Therefore, at the deepest subconscious level, all living beings perceive green as a symbol of security and abundance. Few people know that the human eye is able to perceive the greatest number of shades of green. Biologists argue that this is due to the need to distinguish between predators and other dangers in the green thickets, the natural habitat of the ancestors of modern humans.
Shades of green
This rich color has a great variety of varieties. Many of them are named after precious stones. It is an emerald, dark and rich shade of green. Or malachite, a slightly brighter green. Green mixed with blue is called turquoise. Other shades of green are named after plants that are dyed that color. Aspen color is green with a grayish undertone. Pistachio - a little "dusted", surprisingly delicate green in light colors. In recent decades, the so-called green neon color has become fashionable. This is a very bright, poisonous light green shade. And there is also bottle, the color of young grass, green-brown and many others. All the riches of this color cannot be listed.
The symbolic meaning of green
As mentioned above, the main meaning of green is life, growth, development. Many ancient deities associated with vegetation were depicted in this color. An example is the Egyptian god Osiris, who is depicted with green skin. On some Orthodox icons in green robes they draw the Mother of God. This color emphasizes her mercy and maternal love for all mankind. In many modern esoteric teachings, where female deities play a large role (for example, Wicca), they are also depicted in green tones. We can say with confidence that green is the color of motherhood, femininity, giving life and love.
Green is also considered a symbol of peace and harmony. Muslims consider this color to be the personification of their religion, where for them it means the freshness and fragrance of the Gardens of Eden. In the hot countries where Islam originated, a green oasis is a truly divine gift and a guarantee of survival in the unbearable heat. This color is also associated with naturalness, naturalness, closeness to nature. There is even an environmental party named after the hue, the Green Party.
Like any color, green also has negative connotations. They can be traced in some folk sayings. "Green" is called too young, inexperienced, naive person.

The premises of various hobby groups, yoga studios are also painted in this color. People who are in a green room become friendlier and more open with each other.
Shades of green muffle any negative emotions. With their help, you can quickly get rid of anger and irritation. However, those who suffer from depression should be careful when using it. For depressive disorder nervous system a person is inhibited, and the calming effect of green inhibits it even more. But with a slight blues and sadness, light shades of green (herbal, pistachio) will quickly cheer you up.
Green color in clothes, image
Green shades are great for both business and casual style. This color is truly universal, it colors young girls and mature ladies. Due to the richness of the shades of this color, it is combined with both warm and cold colors. Remember that any outfit must be decorated in one color scheme. To the warm pistachio blossom it is worth choosing equally warm shades, for example, peach. Cold emerald is combined with gray, dark blue, black. Green can also be used to create a festive look. However, do not forget to dilute it with bright accessories, because green itself is a calm, not eye-catching color. Makeup artists advise using green shadows only for women with fairly dark skin. On lighter faces, this color can accentuate pallor.
The green shade is suitable for creating the image of a reliable, calm, gentle person. It is suitable for service workers, those who spend a lot of time communicating with people. It should be used with caution by people who want to emphasize their leadership skills. Green does not have this. This is the color of a diligent performer, not a leader.

A person who chooses green as a favorite color has a soft, calm, complaisant character. He has a strong feminine energy. Its purpose is to care, protect, nurture. Such a person, as a rule, quickly finds mutual language with children and animals. Its disadvantage is excessive passivity.

JOURNEY IN GREEN
Green color- one of the three primary colors additive RGB system.(special issue of green pages)
Green color came from a merger blue and yellow while complementing the qualities of both. Green color sends a lot of different signals. If it is dominated yellow shade, he excites. If green is dominated by blue, he soothes.
I decided to indulge in my favorite oil pastel: I mixed blue and yellow(in the illustration).
There are about thirty main shades of green, but there are much more descriptive adjectives in Russian - mustard, pistachio, olive, khaki, pea, swamp, bottle, salad (light green), malachite, emerald, wormwood, lichen color, copper patina, vitriol, herbal, squash, phosphoric, frog ...
Dark and neutral shades of green- the color of spruce needles, forest thickets - are associated with strength, reliability and durability. Delicate green shades of sage, mint and copper patina soothe. Emerald and malachite talk about luxury.
In nature green color arises from chlorophyll, a green pigment that contains some yellow. Remember how the leaves of trees, grass, cereals and ivy differ in color. Luxurious gardens, magnificent bright flowers framed in various shades of green. Such a yellow-green color usually evokes a feeling of well-being, optimism and spring renewal in a person. Not surprisingly, this color is often associated with fertility. But add even more yellow to the green - as, for example, in chartreuse– and he will completely change. This color often causes a negative reaction and is associated with envy and anger, illness and poison.
In our with you journey through the green we will avoid negativity and enjoy the variety of shades of the green realm ;-)
Green poetry and painting
Green color caresses at noon with a shadow,
He gives peace to the soul and vision.
And the grasses are green, and the darkness in the forests.
Green color fluctuates in the eyes
Green color is the outfit of any garden,
And for jasmine, the stem is like a reward.

In England, red, yellow and blue were considered the main colors for a long time, and only in 1861 James Maxwell proposed additive color synthesis as a way to get color images - RGB system (red, green, blue) which currently dominates color reproduction systems for monitors and televisions.
Green sea water
Through the glassy sky
Dawn Star Diamond
Shines in his transparent bosom...
1901, Ivan Alekseevich Bunin
The color of the sea and the color of the sea wave
Adjective "nautical" associated with many of us with all sorts of combinations of green and blue. Let's try to deal with this adjective ;-) And here you can't do without my favorite physics: reflection, refraction - Her Majesty geometric optics + our emotions.
sea color- the color perceived by the eye when the observer looks at the surface of the sea. The color of the sea depends on the color of sea water, the color of the sky, the number and nature of clouds, the height of the Sun above the horizon, and other reasons.
concept sea color should be distinguished from the concept sea water color. Under sea water color understand the color perceived by the eye when viewing sea water vertically over a white background. Only a small part of the light rays falling on it is reflected from the surface of the sea, the rest of them penetrate deep into, where they are absorbed and scattered by water molecules, particles of suspended matter and tiny gas bubbles.
The scattered rays reflected and emerging from the sea create sea color. Water molecules scatter blue and green rays the most. Suspended particles scatter all rays almost equally. Therefore, sea water with a small amount of suspension seems blue-green(the color of the open parts of the oceans), and with a significant amount of suspension - yellowish green(for example, the Baltic Sea).Marine painting
Plunging into the marine theme, you should turn to the canvases Ivan Konstantinovich Aivazovsky(Gaivazovsky), who painted about six thousand paintings on the marine theme.
Ivan Constantinovich Aivazovski(Hovhannes Ayvazyan; 07/29/1817 - 05/02/1900) - the world-famous Russian marine painter, battle painter, collector, philanthropist.
The originality of creativity Aivazovsky lies in the romantic image of the immense grandeur and violent power of the sea element: sunsets blazing with fire, playing on the waves of moonlight, torn clouds filled with thick ink and the endless blue flooding the horizon.
What the words "played" then found in the reproductions of Aivazovsky's paintings :-)

We walked along the seashore ... we go to the underwater kingdom with Russian epic "Sadko" by Ilya Repin.
Repin Ilya Efimovich- Russian painter, master of portraits, historical and everyday scenes.
Repin Ilya Efimovich. "Sadko", 1876
Repin painted a picture on the plot of the Novgorod epic "Sadko". Renowned for playing the harp merchant Sadko By chance, he ends up in the underwater kingdom to the sea king. Great music captivates the king. Wishing to listen and listen ..., the king demands from Sadko to choose one of his daughters as his wife, presented on the canvas in the form of richly dressed beauties personifying different countries and peoples. Mermaid divas are fabulously good, but the heart Sadko belongs Chernave... (to a girl in the clothes of a simple Russian peasant woman, standing at a distance in the upper left corner of the picture).
In order to more convincingly show the bizarre, fantastic marine life, in the process of working on the picture Ilya Repin visits the recently opened Marine Aquarium in Berlin. The artist uses the richest palette of colors in the picture: from light olive to deep green. To enhance the effect, Repin draws his epic heroes surrounded by fantastic fish shimmering with their scales, bizarre coral scallops, intricate shells and starfish.
Painting by Ilya Repin "Sadko" the first in epic Russian painting. For this picture Ilya Repin was awarded the title of Academician of the Imperial Academy of Arts.

Green cooking
In the culinary section of my article, we will focus exclusively on the classics - no overseas delights, no artificial colors, flavors and other contraceptives. All with your own hands and in a good mood!
There are three varieties of classic colored sauces:
white sauce(for boiled rabbit, veal, lamb and chicken; based on: flour, eggs, broth and butter + your fantasies in terms of spices);
red sauce(for chopped cutlets, fried meat and tongue; based on: flour, tomatoes, carrots, onions and butter + your fantasies in terms of seasonings); and…
green sauce(to cold fish dishes and fish fried in breadcrumbs), and here the details have already gone ...
green sauce
Boil washed lettuce, spinach, tarragon or parsley leaves in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, remove, let the water drain, chop finely, rub through a hair sieve and mix with mayonnaise sauce adding vinegar and salt to taste. Serving green sauce to cold fish, as well as to fish fried in breadcrumbs. For 1/2 cup of mayonnaise sauce - 1 tablespoon of cooked and pureed lettuce, spinach, tarragon or green parsley, 1 tablespoon of vinegar.
mayonnaise sauce: Pour raw egg yolks into a porcelain or faience cup, salt and mix with a whisk or spatula. Then pour in small portions (one teaspoon) vegetable oil, each time carefully mixing it with the yolks. When a thick homogeneous mass is obtained from the butter and yolks, add vinegar. If the sauce is too thick, add about a tablespoon of warm water to it. For a spicier taste, you can add 1/4 teaspoon of ready-made mustard to the sauce, which must be mixed with the yolks before dressing the sauce with oil. For 1/2 cup vegetable oil (sunflower or olive) - 1 egg or 4 quail eggs (yolks), 1 tbsp. a spoonful of vinegar.
Bon appetit and evergreen mood to all!
Blooming garden through colored glass- the final chord of the trilogy "Primary Colors of the Additive RGB System": Walk on Red (Red); Journey through the green (Green); Swimming along blue color(Blue).
P.S.: No green blouses or green skirts were found in my wardrobe... only green pants were found :-) However, I like the green color and I use it with pleasure when developing advertising layouts for printing and in website design color schemes, giving preference to cheerful and warm shades of green.
The green color is associated with the process of development of organic life: first in the ocean, and then on land, first in the form of bacteria and plants that inhabited all continents. Green plants, saturating the atmosphere with oxygen, and the stomachs of herbivores with food, made it possible for other living beings and humans to live and develop.
In our perception of the environment, green occupies a special place. This is the color of nature: seas and blades of grass, frogs and forests. This is the color joyful events our lives: green tree New Year's holiday, the palm branch of the entry of Christ into Jerusalem, Laurel wreath winner. Green color is also stubborn shoots breaking through the asphalt. Green color is perceived by us as cool, calm and humid environment. For the human eye, this is the most natural, natural and harmonious color.
Subconsciously for each person it is, first of all, growth, development and harmony in nature. Like green grass that pleases everyone after a long, cold and rather colorless winter. Green is the color of nature, nature, life itself, harmony. In addition, it is the green color that is accepted throughout the world as the safest, and it is not for nothing that the green light of the traffic light allows movement.
For many nations, it symbolizes youth, hope, fun, although sometimes it is also immaturity, insufficient perfection. The Iranians associate the green color both with rapid growth and freshness, and with misfortune, sadness, grief, so they say about the unfortunate person "green leg", and about the cemetery - "green house".
Green color
The first associations with him are the sweetest, brightest, warmest. This tone is soothing and pleasing to the eye. In a house where everything is decorated in green tones, it is pleasant to spend time, relax after hard working days.

Golden-green colors are also interesting in the color palette of rooms, creating luxurious splashes in the overall picture. The color of olives, which is as close as possible to yellow, is in perfect harmony with red, orange.
Emerald color is deep, luxurious, majestic
It is very relevant this year. In artless pastel interior the addition of emerald details transforms the space, gives it splendor in the eyes of the guests.

The green scale is very successful for a "tropical" interior. Such a technique will refresh the rest rooms and bedrooms, especially the “cold” ones - oriented to the north and devoid of natural light.
Photo 1: armchair - juicy pear, floral ornament on the wallpaper - the color of the fern.
Green shade is interesting with dominant blue or predominant yellow. It is extremely difficult to combine them in one room, but the result will exceed all expectations. This is a very sophisticated and trendy mix.
Photo 2: wallpaper - shamrock color; chest of drawers - light emerald.
The darkest blue-green shades were popular during the Art Deco era, and thanks to retro cinema, they are still the choice for boudoir-style rooms to this day. On a large surface, they look best in combination with other colors. Silver and pewter shades are classic partners, although dark blue-green looks no less advantageous against the background of gold and bronze.
Photo 3: walls - viridian (one of the shades of turquoise, close to jade); curtains - sea greens; furniture - gray-green.
Olive tones of green have "softening" qualities that go well with both modern and traditional furniture. Combined with light shades they visually expand the room, fill it with comfort and warmth. To fix this effect, pastel floors should be used, best of all from light wood.

Photo 7: pillows - Islamic green; floor lamp - asparagus; carpet - lime pulp.

Lighter greens most often found on chintz fabrics and floral patterns, especially in combination with other garden shades: pinks and yellows. These soft and cuddly wallpaper and curtain combinations look great paired with striped and plaid accessories.

More saturated shades can also be part of a carefully designed range: create a tropical interior and add bright pinks, oranges and turquoise blues. You can also pair them with soft blue-greens for a muted effect. Use them in nurseries, or apply light green paint to an accent wall in a family room or office.
gray blue
No two blue shades are the same, but among them tones with a dominant blue color and almost green shades. The very light tones add a subtle elegance to the walls in sunny bedrooms and living rooms, as well as the brightness of the woodwork. They look great on window frame(only walls should be painted in a lighter dove tone or pastel cream shades) or on grooved panels in bathrooms, hallways and kitchens.
Turquoise
This lively tropical color- an excellent choice for modern interiors. Try pairing it with pinks and reds for an added sparkle, or pair it with bright whites for a fresher effect. It may be too bright on four walls, but just like light green, it looks great on an accent wall.

Intense peppermint flavor
Very bright mint colors

By itself, this shade may seem too harsh, but add juicy wood tones with yellowish pigment and mirror elements (chrome and metallic are ideal for modern kitchens) - and you get a profitable combination.
Make sure the walls are properly prepared, as such a bright paint will make any cracks and crevices visible. For brighter tones it is better to use acrylic paint than matte vinyl emulsion.
