Color is light reflected off an object. For
example a plant reflects green light, an apple reflects red light. Color is
composed of three primary colors red, blue, and green. The combination of two
of these colors will create their complementary: cyan, yellow, and magenta. The
combination of all these colors will create white light, which is why if you
shine light through a prism you will get the visible light spectrum. Different
colors are have different effects on people and the way they feel. For example
in movies if a scene is lit with blue light, the scene will appear cold, and
will make scene seem somewhat grim and serious. Where as if you light it with
yellow light the scene will appear warmer, and therefore more jovial.

I am intrigued by how light and pigments act
differently. With light the primary colors are red, blue, and green. With
pigments, the primary colors are red, blue, and yellow. I guess is due the
green cones in our eyes, but it is still weird how we can physically see blue
and yellow mix to turn green, but when it comes to light, it’s completely
different.

I think just seeing the pigments being made a
lasting impression in my mind. It’s kind of like watching the food channel. You
really have no interest in it, but yet it is so hypnotizing. I learned that
blue was a very rich color back in the day, and it just reminds me of how blue
is usually associated with royalty.

Well whomever the host of this video, did a
great job presenting. It’s like he was about to describe an epic battle, so I
enjoyed when he got onto the discussion of Francisco Goya and how he used
darker colors in his paintings, resulting in a dark, blunt, primal mood being
created.
