Python – Use .join() in Python to color all columns in an array except the first column

I’m trying to color all the elements of the array after the first column. I finally got it working, but I knew there were more “pythonic” ways to do this and looked for some suggestions:

for row in board:    
    print row[0] + " " + " ".join(colored(element, element_colors[element])
                                  for element in row[1:])

Any suggestions on how to do this in a more pythonic way would be appreciated!

Edit:
The expected output is as follows:

[1] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W]
[2] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W]
[3] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W]
[4] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W]
[5] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W]
[6] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W]
[7] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W]
[8] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W] [W]

Where 1-8 are not colored by shaded functions, and all [W] spaces are.

So I can make the elements_color dictionary smaller :

element_colors = {'[X]': 'red', '[H]': 'magenta', '[W]': 'cyan'}

Another way is to glue them together using +

' '.join([row[0]] + [colored(e, element_colors[e]) for e in row[1:]])
