Colors are like magic in nature! Imagine a cave where the walls look red because of iron, and water looks blue because of light. Early humans saw these colors every day. They started painting on caves with pigments from plants and soil, and that’s how art began. Colors helped them tell stories, show who they were, and maybe even feel happy or calm.
Examples
- A child draws on a rock with red clay and makes a picture of a deer.
- A group paints their faces before going hunting, to look scary.
