    • @IONE_the_Enby

      She's not wrong tho. Sea foam green is sorted unspokenly agreed to be one shade, whereas teal is widely disagreed upon- I believe teal to be a dark blue green shade like malachite, and others say it's more of a turquoise, and still yet others say it's more of a pasty cyan shade. That's why colors are so annoying- its subjective

      I see it as some kind of very bland (non-neon) teal mixed with red and turqoise lacing etc... I don't see any grey or pink or whatever. The shoe itself seems dark teal, bland mixed with some kind of underlying redness to me, while the lacing etc is bright neon turquoise.

    When that dress thing was going around I genuinely thought people were trolling. It was obviously black and blue to me, but I stared at it for a while and it was like I looked at a different spot or something and it faded into white and gold. When it was on in the video I was trying to do that again and couldn't until they mentioned the blue light thing then it clicked and I could do it again. Same with the shoes. Knowing to imagine the light differently makes it so much easier.

    As an artist it always boggles my mind how sometimes when you make the background color Grey but in the cooler side in the palette obviously you would choose a cool toned drawing especially for skin and when the background was more on the warmer tone you would choose a warm palette but when you post it in social media you then realize that alot of people see the colors differently just like how some would see it in a screen with customized lighting with its own shade of color sometimes people have it in warm tone or cool tone or night vision and the color of your drawing differs so much :// idk if it's just me or something

    We painters fight against this all the time. It's part of the "paint what you see, not what you think you see".

    6:18 slow it down, you can see where your brain switches over to seeing the squares the same hue. It's also apparent that it is the square of a differing shades of grey on the opposing corners of each cube are affecting our perception of the subject squares' shades of grey. One with paler grey contrasts to make its' opposite more rosy; and conversely, the other cube, the more rosy opposing square makes the subject square seem relatively pale grey. *It had nothing to do with the illuminant.*

      but well those different shades of gray make it seem like the entire cube is in a different lighting because your brain thinks that the reason WHY those gray parts are different shades is BECAUSE of the different lighting! Your brain interprets the different shades of gray as the SAME shade of gray under DIFFERENT lighting. The color of the background reinforces this illusion. That's exactly what they've been explaining. Color perception is contextual.
