'''Eleseth''' is a scholar and artist on [[Roshar]] during the [[Era of Solitude]].{{book ref|sa2|78}}
== History ==
Eleseth studied the effect of colored lighting on art and human perception.{{book ref|sa2|78}} She would paint with only [[sphere]]s of one color, such as ruby, to light her studio. She found that initially she would not use enough of that same color in her paintings, but after time had passed she discovered that her mind would compensate and she would begin to paint more normally again. Eleseth also discovered if she switched the color of the spheres during a painting session, for a time she would paint as if the room was still lit by the previous color.
Brightness [[Shallan Davar]] read of Eleseth and her work.{{book ref|sa2|78}} She later explained the experiment to [[Pattern]], citing it as a reason she worried about perception. Shallan said that Eleseth's experiment made her wonder if she will ever be able to see the world clearly.
