This Photo of Strawberries Has No Red Pixels in It

You read that correctly, your eyes are lying to you. While these strawberries look red, the blue tint to the photo permeates the whole picture, and there are actually no red pixels in the image at all. Your brain is trained to think it sees certain colors, which is why the strawberries still appear red.  A visual illusion called color constancy, the image was created by Professor Akiyoshi…

True! A lot of non-artists I meet get very confused with just the color wheels. Because by that logic, all the colors should go well together! And yet:

This looks... Not good. Even though they all follow the correct hue patterns! Color has a lot more than just color involved. Here's the same Hues, but with the Saturation and Lightness adjusted so they look better:

And just to be sure, I made seperate little groups with the colors taking turns adjusting to each other. I didn't even change the hue! Just the Saturation and Lightness! (Monochrome is one color, which is why it's still by itself)

But that's just my two cents.

somebody wanted me to make my own color theory post so here it is:

every guide to "color theory" i've ever been able to find is just this information and nothing further. just different presentations of these few types of combinations, sometimes with a little evopsych sprinkled in. at this point they really shouldn't be calling it a "theory." that implies there's a systemic logic going on, and if that were the case surely there would be some explanation beyond "vibes dude, trust me". (those color sets don't even look particularly Nice relative to other possibilities despite covering most possible combinations. there's certainly no way to prove any of it anyway.)

feels like some art school hivemind intent on believing that there's some complicated genius behind choosing colors, some whole topic of study to learn, when really there's just... colors and people who think that their opinions on colors are scientific. what really gets me is that it's presented as an essential topic to learn in order to make Good Art™. but, well, you really can't learn it all because most of it is vague implications with no substance, so everyone's a fake artist in the end by that metric.

so if you see these things around all the time surrounded by cryptic hints that there's "so much more scientific stuff" behind it and it's starting to make you feel like you're living in a simulation and starting to butt up against the edge of the world building, don't worry. it's not really important. it's just cultural associations and personal opinions (with a little pseudoscience) loosely assembled into mildly helpful guidelines. so go make art your own way, use or don't use whatever guidelines you find helpful. and try not to get discouraged by weird art school premises that don't actually have any "theory" backing them up anyway

Constance, writing in her diary with a glitter gel pen✨: I'm losing my sense of humanity. Nothing matters. God is dead. There's blood on my hands.
