Moving colors
For hundreds of years, fishermen have decorated their boats. Some
fishermen like broad, colorful stripes or beautiful flowers on their
boats. Others like pictures of saints or mermaids. Still others paint
huge eyes on each side so the boat can “see” its way safely. Colors and
pictures help to make plain workboats more personal and more attractive.
People everywhere like to decorate their cars, carts, bicycles, and
animals. Even when we are on the move, we like to have color around us.
