Eleseth is a scholar and artist on Roshar.
They studied the effect of coloured lighting on the outcome of a painting.[1]
“The artist Eleseth once did an experiment. She set out only ruby spheres, in their strength, to light her studio. She wanted to see what effect the all-red light would have upon her art. At first, during a painting session, the color of light affected her strongly. She would use too little red, and fields of blossoms would look washed out. The interesting thing, however, was what happened if she continued working. If she painted for hours by that light, the effects diminished. The colors of her reproductions grew more balanced, the pictures of flowers more vivid. She eventually concluded that her mind compensated for the colors she saw. Indeed, if she switched the color of the light during a session, she'd continue for a time to paint as if the room were still red, reacting against the new color.”
