What are your three favorite colors and why?

[LittlePebble10]

I got to thinking about the colors I like to use. Of course as an artist this does limit things. However, I think having a list of three favorite colors never hurts. In order they are Sky Blue, Purple, and Pink. They are close together on the color wheel at their root. Not sure how it turned out that way. It sure was not planned in my life.

Sky blue was my child hood favorite. Back then I was the typical boy. My mother says she knew I was going to do something with my hands when she saw me spend hours with wooden builder toys. I am not entirely sure what drew me to the color blue. I know in high school I chose sapphire for my senior ring. It was the color of Saphira from Eragon and its the color of my tulpa named Seria. I created her in 2007. For the longest time I thought it was 2008 until I dug up my old diaries. 

Purple is obvious. That is Spyro and well its the color of blue mixed with red. Pink is a diluted red. I actually got into pink because of Pinkie Pi in 2008 if  remember correctly. Of course the meaning changed over time. What stuck was the meaning of salvation. Red being symbolic of  Jesus's blood and white meaning purity. When you put the two together they make pink. In a way you could say God is not done with me yet. Hints the reason the lack of white. It is simply pink. Also I will never stop saying, "I am absolutely positively pink," when I am over joyed. That is something Pinkie Pie always said in G3. 

 

What are your three colors? Are they a triad, complementary, or are they warm colors in variation? What meaning do you get out of them in your life?

Dark gray, hunter green, eggplant. Why? They just make me feel good. 

[Fidei Defensor]

Red, Gold, and Robin Egg Blue. 

Red for the Blood of Christ thay washes away our sins. 

Gold for heaven and the glory of God. 

Robin Egg Blue for purity, innocence, and joy.

Yellow, grey and fuchsia just because.

Green Yellow and Sky Blue

Not sure if its important but they make up one 90 degree arc of the color wheel. But its creation I love
