High Sat vs Low Sat

I've been considering high sat images vs. low sat images. I have an observation, based on how I feel as a perceiver of art. I do not count this as the take of the masses. I am exploring the take of my instincts, and how I intake other's art.

High sat images feed our emotional relation to the image and its content. Low sat images feed the intellectual part of the brain/soul/spirit. When I intake a high sat image, my first center touch met is pleasure, emotion, and obvious and not so obvious satisfaction. And when I have the balance of image to saturation, I am hunting detail, imagery, takes on perfection, or vision perfection, and messages.

Both manner of images are beneficial to a person's environment. Where one develops art for their home, for decor, etc., there are focus points for emotional splash, and there are points for intellectual splash.

Having a drawing done in antiquity colors surrounded in bright framing options fits into both internal needs of color and intellect consumpton.

Stepping toward impressionist, pointillism, and watercolor means stepping toward more emotional or visual feeds which do not rely upon detail as the satisfaction factor in the image. It's art which does not need reflection upon that history it communicates. It completes a corner, by adding the right splash of coordinated color. And it feeds the color center of the brain, in the right place at the right time, being the unnecessary set into the necessary.

It is the sprinkles upon the whipping cream, and where you have lower sat, you digest the piece till you find the cherries.
