Happy Celtic Heritage Month

Visit my Art Show!
This March is about to close on another year's celebration of Celtic Heritage. 

If you are Irish or Scottish, or a little in between, there is a sense of history, culture, and community with the Celtic people. As an American, I would have loved to have visited the Emerald Island before I had become disabled. The jaunt was on my bucket list. 

Lucky for me, there is the internet! So I can travel the world without a passport or airplane ticket. The globe's best destinations are a search engine away! 

That is how a writer should view the world and its many fascinating cultures: with a child's enthusiasm. 

As for the rest of March, we can eat, drink, and be merry for everyone in their heart is a little Celtic, if they know it or not!

Have a great and wonderful day.

Dressed to Express Discontent

So there was a bit of a controversy surrounding a blue and black dress on social media recently.

Did you see a blue and black dress, or a gold and white dress? 


The middle dress is the example placed on social media that made everyone lose their minds. The dress on the right and left of the middle dress are the two color differences that created the uproar. 

I personally see the gold and white dress.

Wired says that makes me wrong because the dress is actually blue and black. I say no. I am correct. If I have to change my RGB settings to view the color of the dress then something is wrong with the image to begin with. When I shop online, I buy clothes and accessories, each has come as I have seen it on my monitor. Why should I have to change anything?

My brain and ocular receptors pick up light differently. Perhaps my blue eyes have more rods than cones, or the other way around. That brings up another fascinating point... what iris color predicted which color duo? 

It is known that brown, blue, green iris colors affect image perception. The question is how much? That should be a study about how we view images.

In writing, a character with color blindness or a species from another planet that cannot see a shade of a certain color would be a fine example on how a writer can use the differences in the way humans see and reflect those differences back at us.

Have a great and wonderful day!
