One of my favorite paintings I’ve ever seen in person is completely blue. But it’s a strange, translucent blue that was accomplished by carefully applying dozens of slightly tinted layers. Your eyes don’t really register the canvas as a surface when looking at it; it’s more like a portal into the blue dimension or something.
It’s in a free gallery. I really ought to go back someday and stare at it some more.
A lot of this kind of art that people mock online have a completely different effect when you see it in person. Pollock paintings where that for me; easy to mock as a teenager seeing them on a computer screen, but breathtaking when you're standing in front of them.
