Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot, others transform a yellow spot into a sun.- Pablo Picasso

What a horrible thing yellow is.

I was for years in the yellow period, you know.

Have you ever tried to read text that was in yellow? Yellow is the most fatiguing of all colors to the eye. This is because the brightness of the color means that the amount of light reflected is quite high. Believe it or not, using yellow as a background on paper, computer monitors, or otherwise can lead to eyestrain or even vision loss in the most extreme of cases.

High levels of exposure to yellow can also create irritability, aggression, or anger. This is simply due to the intensity of the color. Many individuals report agitation when placed in a yellow room.
