take off your sunglasses after an afternoon outside for every shade of every color to hit your eyes. only then do you remember what it’s like not to see the world in a million shades of chocolate.

paint a picture with your sunglasses on. if the apple you see appears a dark chocolate shade, you dip your brush into the corresponding dark chocolate paint. if the banana appears a milk chocolate shade, you dip your brush into the corresponding milk chocolate shade. to myself the viewer, you simply dipped your brush into the red paint to paint the red apple. at no point would i have noticed you going for the brown paints…unless there was a (insert-brown-colored-fruit). having said that i would have noticed your sunglasses, much to my amusement.

so forget his cyanopsia. i think Monet meant for Blue Water Lilies to be blue.
