How the color is made: Hot Pink is made by blending Very Pale Magenta with Pure Pink to create a hue that leaps off the page and into your eyeballs.

History: Historically, Hot Pink was associated with lust, passion, desire, and intense emotions. It was used in contemporary artworks to depict urgency and obsession. Painters like Picasso used Hot Pink to portray appetition or infatuation.
