Why is the past always associated with black and white? Why these two colors only? I have had this question running around in my mind but I could never come up with a theory to support it. Recently, after watching a movie which had a theme closely connected to it called, "Looking back and moving forward," it suddenly struck me.
Black and white are more than just a classic combination or more than just a way to describe "vintage". Life is like a canvas. It is divided into two parts, black and white. Black resembles your past. Now I don't mean that it is dark and dingy. Black is a dark color. It's not easy to paint on a black canvas. Translation, you can't alter the past. It's the darkest color there is and it's not easy to have any kind of great alteration to it. What you do have is your present and your future. The purest color there is, white. You can paint anything with any paint you like. Open and free space. Any color that you throw at it, will leave the exact impact you want. So go ahead, browse through the walls of color, pick your color and splash it right on the white space.
Maybe, you can't paint a gallery but you surely can paint your life!
