Is it true that our perception of colour is strongly affected by the colours surrounding it?

Question

Is it very normal and common?

Answer 1

Hi. Yes, very common. Our perception of color is deeply layered and textured. We can visually "combine" colors and their juxtaposition creates different moods within us.

Answer 2

In multiple books, i've got seen one colour or colour placed upon diverse backgrounds. to illustrate, a medium gray sq. is placed in the middle of a stronger sq. of white. Beside it, a sq. of a similar medium gray is placed in a stronger black sq.. the gray on the white seems to be like plenty darker than the gray on the black. attempt a purple sq. on a stronger eco-friendly sq. or vice versa to work out what occurs. I recommend spectrum colours, not pastels, to get the full result.
