It wasn’t Gandhi

Patriotism is a color.  For all of us who’ve spent time in the United States, the red, white, and blue is America.  It’s democracy and freedom.  Color is literally political.  But, does this mean we can be manipulated?  By taking an image and adding colors we believe to be “hope,” can we be tricked?


The main hues I used were RED and BLUE.  I also used White (which is arguably a tint), a shade of blue, a tint of red, and a tint of blue.  I chose my colors based our notions (either conscious or not) of what they mean to us.
