Why Colourphobia??

What does Colourphobia mean? Why the heck would we pick it as a name?

Well little followers, let us fill you in…
Coulrophobia, if you look in any well known dictionary or our beloved google is that name given to those who have a fear of clowns.
COULROPHOBIA = FEAR OF CLOWNS
We assume those who have a fear of clowns, will either
1. Already know this name, and kinda get the jist.
2. Not be on our blog for too long! and moving swiftly along.
 we however like due to its similarity to the word colour, we’re very interested in the power of make-up and face-paints, colours, what different colours mean to different people, how a colour shows expression or an emotion, juxtaposing colours, colours as opposites, using colour as a mask on our face and what this colour may represent, playing with colours…. it goes on and on and on…. basically…. WE LOVE COLOURS!
So we had a little play around with Coulrophoiba and and the word Colour….(see what we did!) and created and own word…. Thats right COLOURPHOBIA!
Hence, we were born!
