Did you see that purple blue, value one, chroma eight, evening sky?

Everybody's perception of color is different, no two people will ever experience a color in the same way.

The Munsell system is useful for industry when a manufacturer of wallpaper has to have some curtain fabric dyed to match.

Color is visceral, emotional, based on observations of nature and experiments. There are laws, like complementary colors to be sure, but extensive theoretical knowledge of color will never supplant the great intuitive artist.
