We use these conventions to portray emotions 鈥&nbsp;and observers perceive the emotions intended.鈥</p> <p>The findings could help designers and visual artists convey emotions to users or viewers, or create architectural or designed spaces that evoke positive responses. It could also lead to a better understanding of visual esthetics 鈥&nbsp;how artists depict emotions in their work and whether it evokes the response they desire from viewers.</p> <p>The study's lead author is&nbsp;<a href="https://www.claudiadamiano.ca/home">Claudia Damiano</a>, a postdoctoral researcher with the <a href="https://ppw.kuleuven.be/bc">department of brain and cognition</a>&nbsp;at KU Leuven in&nbsp;Belgium, and a former graduate student in Bernhardt-Walther's lab. Damiano&nbsp;conducted the research&nbsp;with <a href="https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=HQxKjvIAAAAJ&amp;hl=en">Pinaki Gayen</a>, a visiting graduate student who came to 老司机直播's department of psychology in 2019 on a Shastri Indo-Canadian Institute Research Fellowship. 老司机直播 co-authors include Bernhardt-Walther and postdoctoral fellow <a href="https://mrezanejad.github.io/">Morteza Rezanejad</a>, also&nbsp;in the department of psychology.</p> <p>For the study, Bernhardt-Walther and his colleagues recruited 40 students from visual arts programs at OCAD University and 41 non-artists from STEM programs at 老司机直播. All were instructed to create two abstract drawings 鈥 one using colour and one lines 鈥&nbsp;for each of six emotions: anger, disgust, fear, sadness, joy and wonder.</p> <p>The researchers began by validating the idea that distinct emotions were depicted in a consistent manner. First, they conducted computational analysis of the lines and colours in all the drawings. They then built a computational model that could predict the emotion from the visual properties of drawings by artists and non-artists.</p> <p>They found that drawings depicting negative emotions tended to contain more lines and darker colours: red, blue, brown, black and grey. Drawings of positive emotions were less dense, had more curved or oblique lines&nbsp;and contained brighter colours.</p> <p>Images for joy were predominantly yellow-green, those depicting disgust were&nbsp;a darker green,&nbsp;anger was shown as&nbsp;red while sadness was blue,&nbsp;and so on. The line drawings exhibited different styles of lines 鈥&nbsp;from strong, intersecting lines for anger, to wavy and curved lines for joy.</p> <figure role="group" class="caption caption-drupal-media align-right"> <div> <div class="field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/2023-05/i1534-7362-23-4-1-f1_1680251416-crop.jpeg" width="350" height="377" alt="Sample colour and line drawings for each emotion"> </div> </div> <figcaption><em>Sample colour and line drawings for each emotion, made by one artist and one non-artist participating in the study (Damiano, Bernhardt-Walther, et al.)</em></figcaption> </figure> <p>The team also compared how artists and non-artists conveyed emotions with colours and found that trained artists generally used a smaller number of colours than non-artists and that the colours they used were unconventional. They also discovered that non-artists were better at conveying emotions through colour than artists.</p> <p>鈥淚 believe the reason for this difference could be that non-artists tend to follow convention, whereas artists strive to be innovative&nbsp;鈥&nbsp;they want to do something distinctive,鈥 Bernhardt-Walther says. 鈥淎rtists know what the conventions are&nbsp;but they want to break from those conventions in order to provoke, stand out and create something special.鈥</p> <p>The researchers also found that it is easier to guess the emotion a colour drawing is portraying than in&nbsp;a line drawing. They speculate that this is because the associations between colours and emotions are stronger for people&nbsp;than those&nbsp;between lines and emotions.</p> <p>And while the study did not delve into whether these associations are innate or learned, Bernhardt-Walther draws on his own research and that of other academics, noting these colour-emotion matches aren鈥檛 just culturally learned 鈥&nbsp;in other words, we didn鈥檛 learn them simply from the paintings, illustrations and movies viewed throughout our lives.</p> <p>鈥淭here is generally very good agreement on the association between colours and emotions across cultures that have developed independently,鈥 Bernhardt-Walther says.</p> <p>鈥淭here is consensus that red has significance because it is associated with blood&nbsp;鈥&nbsp;whether it鈥檚 your prey鈥檚 blood or your own. Our faces turn red when we are angry and grey or green when we feel nauseous. Darkness is scary because of the unknown danger.</p> <p>鈥淎nd in addition to being associated with sadness, blue is also calming 鈥&nbsp;and the obvious association with the sky and water and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.artsci.utoronto.ca/news/u-t-researchers-provide-insight-how-we-sense-threats-our-environment">being in the open where you are less at risk</a>&nbsp;from a danger like a predator. We imitate these colours in artwork to specifically evoke these emotions.鈥</p> <p>For Bernhardt-Walther, the study is consistent with his growing interest in the effect of the visual environment on our emotions.</p> <p>鈥淚鈥檓 studying visual esthetics more and more now as part of my research,鈥 he says.</p> <p>鈥淚 want to know what people find esthetically pleasing and why, because I think it is an integral part of our perceptual experience.

The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam says the drawings in the "lost" sketchbook are "imitations of Van Gogh's work and that the notebook raises many questions."</p> <p>"At an earlier stage (in 2008 and 2012), our experts gave their opinion on its authenticity 鈥 an opinion not mentioned in the publication 鈥 at the request of various owners of drawings from the album," the museum says in a statement on its website. "Our researchers and curators are happy about every new work that can correctly be attributed to Van Gogh, but on the basis of high-quality photographs sent to them of 56 of the 65 drawings now published, they concluded that these could not be attributed to Vincent van Gogh."</p> <p>Welsh-Ovcharov has said the lost sketchbook contains drawings from what art historians believe is the most significant period of Van Gogh's life. At the time, he was living in the south of France. He produced some of his most famous paintings, but he was also suffering from a mental illness that led him to cut off his ear.</p> <p>Welsh-Ovcharov is considered one of the world's top experts on Van Gogh. She&nbsp;taught art history for more than 25 years at&nbsp;老司机直播 Mississauga's department of fine art in what was then-called&nbsp;Erindale College.</p> <p>The globally recognized art historian was the first non-French art scholar to be invited to curate the inaugural exhibition for the Mus茅e D'Orsay in France. In 1994, she was awarded the 鈥淐hevalier dans l'Ordre des Palmes Acad茅mique鈥 for her scholarly contributions to French art history. She also curated exhibitions&nbsp;on the work of Van Gogh and his contemporaries including "Vincent van Gogh and the Birth of Cloisonism" (Art Gallery of Ontario, Vincent van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam).&nbsp;</p> <h3><a href="http://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/art-and-architecture/vincent-van-gogh-the-lost-arles-sketchbook/article32836911/">Read the <em>Globe and Mail </em>story on her discovery</a></h3> <p>Her articles have appeared in the <em>British Art Journal</em>, <em>The Burlington Magazine,</em> and she was a contributor to an exhibition 鈥淭he Mystical Landscape: From Claude Monet to Emily Carr,鈥 organized by the Art Gallery of Ontario in 2016, and the Mus茅e D鈥橭rsay in Paris in 2017.</p> <p>Three years ago, she was visiting France when she was asked by a local art scholar&nbsp;to look at an album that could contain some of the Van Gogh's&nbsp;material.&nbsp;</p> <p>"When I opened it up, the first thing I said was, 'No, unbelievable!'" Welsh-Ovcharov told <em>CBC News</em>. "The first drawing that I took out and held in my hands, it was a moment of total mystical experience: 'Oh my goodness, this is impossible!'"</p> <p>But the museum says that after examining a number of the original drawings in 2013 and now reading Welsh-Ovcharov's new book, their experts have not changed their minds.</p> <p>"Their opinion, based on years of research on Van Gogh's drawings in the museum's own collection and elsewhere...is that the drawings in <em>Vincent van Gogh: The Lost Arles Sketchbook</em> are imitations of Van Gogh's drawings," the museum says on its website.
