This is a tree that I saw in the Palo Verde Housing, and the picture doesn't nearly capture the rich, saturated yellowness of the leaves! It was so bright under the street light against the dark night, and it stood out to me immediately. The vibancy was like the color of passion, and the tree felt to me that it was still growing and growing, its energy expanding with the shape of the branches and the bright color.
It was also a color that I really want to put in my New Slate piece, because there's something childish and happy about it. This color also reminds me of Wes Anderson's movies which have an innocent and even flirtatiously childish tone.
Nice detailed post and comments on color and passion
