Is not a color, strictly speaking…. It is the absence of all color. Its opposite is white… Black absorbs light, and can be used to conceal (perfect for hiding our trouble spots in our figure) …
Unfortunately for this powerful color it has picked up some negative connotations (death, evil, negativity, etc.)
I associate black with power, with pride, with a touch of classy elegance (think black-tie affair) … I think its under used and truly misunderstood …
And we thought being green was difficult …lol
Touches of black can:
- conceal
- make bold
- evoke a sense of seriousness
