As a painter I occassionally pay attention to color theory and other times I
just paint what looks or feels right<br /><br /> but the thought popped into my head:
Are we able to predict what the general color of the majority of the flora of a
planet based on the color of light from the star?<br /><br /> In particular I was wondering what relationship the that color theory of yellow and
blue make green had to the relationship of our suns yellow light to the fact
that most of earth's plants are green and we see the sky as blue.
<br /><br />Would red and blue making purple have the effect of a purple sky and blue plants
if the star's light was red?
<br /><br />I wont be surprised if the answer is not a simple one and boils down to yes and
no at the same time; I was just hoping that someone around here would have
either expertise that would shed light or would know of a resource that would
shed light.
