btw i fucking hate complimentary colours.* no it is not ""science"" or ""colour psychology"" that they compliment and look good together, it is not a """fact"""! No!! They Look Horrific Together Actually! Like they are actually anti-complimentary, like the worst possible colours you could put together!! "complementary colours" my ass they should be called "warning never pair together colours"!!!

#*i should elaborate as to not get infamous Tumblrsplainers.#red and green actually look ok together but are sort of overused #and the specific shades they present on the colour wheel、the most legitimate form of the compliments、aren't the greatest pairing of the two #but still ok #but ORANGE AND BLUE??#YELLOW AND VIOLET ??!?!?!?!!#HO O R R I F F I C #ESPECIALLY the “trye purest actual form” of the compliments they show on the colour wheel #that dark computer dead screen blue with the bright neon orange? actually an eyeore #the bright solid yellow with the deep rich cool-toned violet??! i actually want to throw up #you can make orange and blue look good together!! but you got to tweak both of them to the point that they aren't EXACT opposites anymore #like a darkish rust-orange the colour of canyon rocks and a deep teal the colour of a river? that's good. but aren't EXACT compliments anym #a pastel lavender and pale butter-yellow? that can look cute. but not exact compliments #and there are some exact compliments (in the sense that they are exact compliments) that DO look good together #but they aren't primary or secondary colours they are just some random number colour on the wheel #but you can't do that for art classes #like hex 11AAEF and hex FE5102 look nice #it's sort of like nintendo switch colours #but even though its some variation of blue and orange and they are just both slightly “too the left” or whatever #your mind rounds them to “blue and red”#which are not complimentary #so any art teacher wouldn't allow it #grejaknwkswneodjfor #unityrain.txt #art #color theory
