In my own artists perspective, what i've been lead to believe from school is that black is not a color; it's a lack of true color. Color being anything that can be made when light passes through a prism. White; is also not a color; neither is grey.
They're all neutral.
True black, as you buy in a tube of paint (that says black), is black. Black you make with paint (burnt sienna and most any shade of blue) is either a very dark brown, green, or black. *shrugs*
And i'm quite sure if you asked someone who studied color for a living (what a boring, yet interesting job), they'd have a different view on how it works. This is just from my... artsy persective. Iconoplast I do believe has a better understanding of how it works then I do.
(and for you people saying Silver, thats not a color. It's metallic. Silver is many colors. If you take away the lustre on it, it turns grey; which again, is a neutrality)
I also believe that black and white (thus grey) are not colours, from an artistic and physics stand point.
I like all colours, but if I was forced at gunpoint to pick one, I'd say a very vivid shade of violet.
Don't be afraid to see the truth, even if no one wants you to. Be yourself and not a fool. Don't ever be afraid to speak your mind and listen to criticism. Dissent is keeps our country progressive and willingness to challenge yourself is what keeps yourself ever evolving.
