The value of color image is very important in the field of art. Color image symbolizes the visual excitement and perception based on the colors used. And it may directly influence human's emotional cognition and reactions. However, nowadays, with the current popular concepts of colors, whether there is any heterogeneous color image concept which can change psychological cognition and even influence judgments is an issue worthy exploring by researchers in the field of contemporary art. The research subject of this study is the facial makeup in Beijing operas. And besides the fact that the facial makeup in Beijing operas is very representative in global art, another important reason of choosing it is the color image used. The concept of color usage for characters of different thoughts and backgrounds, such as loyal, unscrupulous, good, and evil characters, is different from the modern one. Thus, this study taught the color image of the facial makeup in Beijing operas to school-age art students and sampled colors from actual makeup for the characters done by the students. Then, the hypothesis testing technique based on statistical theories was applied. The core colors used by the students before and after the teaching were analyzed along with the students' demographic data, including the data of their genders and ages. According to the research findings, after the school-age students learned more about the color image of the facial makeup in Beijing operas, the color features of the makeup they did for characters of different personalities significantly changed. This means that even though the students had the common concept of color usage in mind, it was still possible to influence their internal cognition and external color usage behaviors through other color concept related courses. This result can be provided to the fields of cultures and art education as a reference for further and continuing action research.
