COLOR Is the visual perceptual property Corresponding in humans To the categories called red, yellow, blue
and others
![Page 17: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
COLOR Color derives from the spectrum of light
(distribution of light energy versus wavelength)
Interacting in the eye with the spectral sensitivities of the
light receptors
![Page 18: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
COLOR Color categories and physical specifications
of color are also associated with objects, materials, light sources, etc.
Based on their physical properties such as light absorption Reflection or emission spectra
![Page 19: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
COLOR Color is one of the most powerful of the
artistic elements It has tremendous expressive qualities. Understanding the uses of color is crucial
to effective composition in design A knowledge of color terms helps us to
appreciate the different ways that color may be used in art and design

Color Systems
Color classification "systems" have been devised to organize and identify color relationships
A most familiar one is the 12 hue "Color Wheel" introduced by Johannes Itten (1888-1967)
![Page 23: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Light Spectrum
![Page 24: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Light Spectrum
The spectrum is the colors of the rainbow arranged in their natural order:
Red - Orange - Yellow - Green - Blue - Indigo - Violet. The mnemonic for this is ROY G BIV Or RGB
![Page 25: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Hues
A hue is one of the colors of the spectrum Hue is the correct word to use to refer to
just the pure spectrum colors Any given color can be described in terms
of its value and hue In addition, a range of physical phenomena
and psychological effects combine to affect our perceptions of a color
![Page 26: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Hues on a Color Wheel
Hues have a circular order as illustrated in the color wheel
The color wheel is a useful device to help us explain the relationships between Primary, Secondary and Tertiary colors
![Page 27: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Three Main Color Classifications
![Page 29: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Color Classifications
Primary colors These colors are pure-you can’t create them from other colors and all others are
created from them.
Red, blue, and yellow Secondary colors
These colors are formed when equal parts of two primary colors are combined.
Orange, green, and violet Intermediate colors-These colors are formed by mixing a primary
color with a secondary color next to it.
All kinds of other colors….

Primary Colors
On the color wheel Places the PRIMARY colors equidistant from each
other.
![Page 31: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Which ones are the Primary Colors?
![Page 32: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Secondary Colors
In-between the primaries are the "SECONDARY" colors. In between the primary and secondary colors are the INTERMEDIATES
(also called the TERTIARIES).
![Page 33: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Creating Secondary Colors
Secondary colors are made by mixing two primary colors together: red and yellow to get orange yellow and blue to get green red and blue to get purple

Note…
The secondary color you get depends on the proportions in which you mix the two primaries
![Page 35: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Tertiary Colors
If you mix three primary colors together, you get a tertiary color
Also thought of as a combination of primary and secondary colors
![Page 37: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
The Six Tertiary colors
Red-Orange Yellow-Orange Yellow-Green Blue-Green Blue-Violet Red-Violet
What is another place where you have heard the term Tertiary?
![Page 38: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Easy way to remember names
An easy way to remember these names is to place the primary name before the other color
So, the tertiary color produced when mixing the primary color blue with the secondary color green, is called 'blue-green“ And so on…

COLOR HARMONIES
![Page 41: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Harmonies
In decoration, harmony refers to a combination of colors that is pleasing to the eye
![Page 42: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
The Color Harmonies
Monochromatic Complimentary Split Complimentary Triadic Analogous
![Page 43: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Monochromatic One Color – Different shades The monochromatic color scheme uses
variations in lightness and saturation of a single color
This scheme looks clean and elegant Monochromatic colors go well together
producing a soothing effect The monochromatic scheme is very easy on
the eyes, especially with blue or green hues
![Page 44: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Monochromatic
You can use it to establish an overall mood The primary color can be integrated with
neutral colors such as black, white, or gray
However, it can be difficult, when using this scheme, to highlight the most important elements.
![Page 45: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
COMPLIMENTARY Colors that are opposite each other on
the color wheel are considered to be complementary colors example: red and green
The high contrast of complementary colors creates a vibrant look especially when used at full saturation This color scheme must be managed well
so it is not jarring
![Page 46: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
COMPLIMENTARY
Complementary colors are tricky to use in large doses, but work well when you want
something to stand out
Complementary colors are really bad for text
![Page 47: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
SPLIT COMPLIMENTARY
The split-complementary color scheme is a variation of the complementary color scheme
In addition to the base color,
it uses the two colors adjacent to its complement
![Page 48: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
SPLIT COMPLIMENTARY
This color scheme has the same strong visual contrast as the complementary color scheme
but has less tension.
The split-complimentary color scheme is often a good choice for beginners
because it is difficult to mess up
![Page 49: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
TRIADIC A triadic color scheme uses colors
that are evenly spaced around the color wheel
Triadic color harmonies tend to be quite vibrant, even if you use pale or unsaturated versions of your hues
![Page 50: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
TRIADIC
To use a triadic harmony successfully, the colors should be carefully
balanced let one color dominate and use the two others for accent
![Page 51: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
ANALAGOUS Analogous color schemes use
colors that are next to each other on the color wheel
They usually match well and create serene and comfortable designs
![Page 52: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
ANALAGOUS
Analogous color schemes are often found in nature and are harmonious and pleasing to the eye
Make sure you have enough contrast when choosing an analogous color scheme
![Page 53: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
ANALAGOUS
Choose one color to dominate A second to support The third color is used
along with black, white or gray as an accent
![Page 54: Elements intro-color](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c7fc5a4a795954348b465c/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
