This comprehensive survey of color—its science, psychology, theory, and aesthetics—gives artists the knowledge and power to do more with color. Artists learn what color is; the color wheel; various types of color contrast (temperature, intensity, and value); how a medium's physical characteristics affect the use and appearance of color; how color has been used by artists throughout history; and how color can be used effectively in a variety of theories, methods of applications, and mediums. This is an invaluable resource for artists who want to expand their knowledge about and invigorate their use of color. • For artists at all skill levels working in any medium • All artists, regardless of medium or style, need guidance and instruction on the theories and use of color Examines the following topics: • PHYSIOLOGY: what color is and how it has been explained by scientists • THEORY: the color wheel, and alternative color systems like triangles and spheres • HISTORY: how color has been used by artists throughout history • PHYSICS: various types of color contrast (temperature, intensity, value) • CHEMISTRY: how a medium's physical characteristics affect the use and appearance of color • CONTEMPORARY COLOR PRACTICE: how color can be used effectively in a variety of theories, methods of application, and mediums
