Paintings Without Fish

Part of me wants to say “oooohhh prettyyy” but I can’t help but think about how, as complimentary colors, blue and orange are especially appealing to the eye and used in both art and marketing to create a pleasant visual experience. If you don’t believe me, check out the last visual-focused blockbuster you saw (transformers?) and look at all the scenes with orange-tanned actors on blue backgrounds.

Of course, this isn’t entirely accurate, but there is actually a measurable difference in how men and women perceive most colors.
