Color Psychology: Blue

Lately I have been thinking about the psychology of color, especially as it relates to art.  Looking for some scholarly information, a brief search yielded this link about the color blue.  Blue is present in much of my art, as I am very drawn to the sea and marshes.  

Relative to my art, this is the description that I embrace from the above article:
"Blue calls to mind feelings of calmness or serenity. It is often described as peaceful, tranquil, secure, and orderly."
