Book Description

0073023051 978-0073023052 July 28, 2004 1
This new text connects color theory with its practical application in two-dimensional visual disciplines--graphic design, illustration, painting, textile art, and textile design. Fundamental color concepts are explored in a series of sixteen painted studies that guide students through a variety of color experiences. The lesson sequence moves logically from basic structural concepts, through experiments with color applications, to scenarios that facilitate color unity and expression.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Color Book Imaginable, December 3, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Color: A Workshop Approach (Paperback)
I've read/borrowed/owned/purchased *many* color theory books. From Itten to Sendak to Crayola. If you're serious about color theory, this is the one to get. You'll never have to get another book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mastering Color, January 28, 2011
This review is from: Color: A Workshop Approach (Paperback)
A great, in-depth look at the wide world of color. This book features exercises designed to provide the fundamentals of understanding terms such as saturation, tone, and hue. The exercises are easy to understand/execute and will have a direct impact on the way the reader views color relationships in the world around them. It is made even better and more unique in the way that it references art objects outside of Western traditional painting. I would definitely suggest this book to fellow art students and those that are interested in learning about color in their free time.
