Artist Toolbox: Color explains how color captures mood and helps
communicate meaning, as well as how to use color to create personal,
expressive works of art.
In Artist Toolbox: Color, painters will learn how to create impactful
work with an understanding of basic color theory. Topics include the
color wheel, hue, saturation, value, temperature,
relativity, color relationships, and color mixing. You will
learn how color captures mood and to communicate meaning with nothing
more than color as you create personal, expressive works of art.
Step-by-step projects and accessible technique demonstrations show
color theory in action, making this book a useful reference for any
beginning artist's library.
The Artist Toolbox series provides easy-to-use reference guides for
beginning and aspiring artists. While many instructional art books gloss
over important concepts, focusing instead on how to replicate a piece of
art, the Artist Toolboxseries breaks down the whats, whens, whys, and
hows of each relevant tool or technique, clearly demonstrating its
purpose and how to employ it to achieve the desired effects.
