Hello there. My daughter gave me a hat in my favorite color blue. What is your favorite color?
Blue is actually my favorite color too, it has been since I was a kid!
You are kidding me! That is awesome! I was told in art class that the reason why the daytime sky and the deep sea looks blue is due to an optical effect called Rayleigh scattering.
Oh that's interesting, doesn't it involve light refraction and making the sky look blue to us?
Blue
Blue is one of the three primary colours of pigments in painting and traditional colour theory, as well as in the RGB colour model. It lies between violet and green on the spectrum of visible light. The eye perceives blue when observing light with a dominant wavelength between approximately 450 and 495 nanometres. Most blues contain a slight mixture of other colours; azure contains some green, while ultramarine contains some violet. The clear daytime sky and the deep sea appear blue because of an optical effect known as Rayleigh scattering.
a painting, a landscape, to me it’s the mood conveyed that counts.”
“A friend of mine New York at the Salmagundi Club asked me why I didn’t paint watercolors. I said I don’t know how, and he said all you have to do is keep your board a little slanted so when you wash the color onto the paper it runs downhill. That I was my only lesson in watercolor.”
