👏👏👏👏👏👏Again, well done. Short, precise and informative . Great for review time or intro of a subject.
Thank you! And that is always my goal, an overview that is easy to understand that will open the door to more discussion!
Fascinating! Does anyone know how stained-glass artists achieved the color blue for their glass?
Oh, I'm not sure! I'll have to do some research!
@@AccessibleArtHistory I'd be curious to know. :) I'm guessing cobalt, but I've no idea.
"Blue is not common in nature." 3/4 of the world is covered in water. :-/
Water is reflecting the color of the sky. This video refers to animals, plants, etc that are naturally blue. Compared to the other primary colors, its appearance is rare.
I was thinking the same thing, if the sky is blue and covers the whole earth then it is not rare, what’s rare is the name blue and the fact that it is not in flowers, although they have bluebell flowers which are more purple. In any event the sky reflecting blue is enough to say that it is not rare but just the name of the colour is.🌻🌺🌸🌺🌻
