[stylist] Question about color and blindness

[Donna Hill]

... Or because someone described the artist's style in a conceptual way and,
because of who knows what, you like the idea.

The answer to color is yes.  Colors represent emotions, feelings, etc., to
most people so you can have your favorite without seeing.

As to art, what do you mean by "art?"  Painting on canvas is just one kind
of art, There is mu art that can be appreciated in multiple ways, or
modalities as the professionals would say.

Also, in terms of more visual arts, you still could have a favorite because
you admire the creator, or some other reason.
