colours without names





yesterday, all day, our first storm of the winter raged. i spent my time dyeing and spinning and watching "letters to juliet". an ok movie (there are some movies i'm happy to watch alone). what i loved about this movie, while the snow swirled around me, was the colours of verona and sienna. they influenced my colours of the day. i think these are my favourite colours right now. colours that can't be given a name. colours that slide from one to another ("is that yellow? no it's grey. now it's pink...) colour shifting. colours that seem to reach into your soul and settle there. colours with history.
