Chinese New Year- Carissa Lim (01)



The colour that I have chosen is red. 



I chose red as during Chinese New Year, everyone will be decorating their houses with red decorations and red is considered an auspicious colour during Chinese New Year. The symbol that I have chosen is 福.
It means prosperity and if you flip it around, in Chinese, it means prosperity has arrived. Hence many people usually put the symbol 福 upside down. The picture that I have chosen is this. 

I chose this picture as it shows the festive season during Chinese New Year where everywhere is filled with many red decorations and it is also very crowded with people shopping for Chinese New Year goodies. There are also many decorations being put up for sale. 

These are what I chose to depict Chinese New Year as a festive season. 😄
