Color can affect your emotions whether it excites your emotions or depresses them.  Bright vibrant red can invoke passion, where blues can be depressing.  In the video the lady was not only inspired and passion filled by color, she also became frustrated by them, when she took a good look at her painting.  Colors bring out emotion in many different ways.
