The Procolor 500 Shikisai is the seasonal colors edition. Spring is represented by the Sakura (pink) as it is also the season when the Japanese cherry blossoms bloom. Summer is represented by Uchimizu (transparant blue), which means “sprinkling water”. It is a Japanese tradition where water is sprinkled on the streets during summer to “purify” the place before welcoming people, and also to cool down the streets and prevent dust from flying around during summer. Autumn is represented by Akanezora, or “red sky”, which evokes feelings of the colours of autumn. Winter is represented by Hoshikuzu, “Star dust”, which depicts a winter sky full of stars.
