I find it interesting that complementary colors don't always look pleasing together, and a fashion-oriented person would probably not pick complementary colors for clothing. However, I believe the most effective use of complementary colors is to add interest to a painting, and usually to a particular part of the painting. When complementary colors are placed next to each other it creates a point of interest in the viewer's eye; the clever painter can take advantage of this phenomenon and "guide" the viewer simply by creative use of complementary colors on the painting.
