Basic
Color Theory
Color theory encompasses a multitude of definitions, concepts and design
applications - enough to fill several encyclopedias. However, there are three
basic categories of color theory that are logical and useful : The color wheel,
color harmony, and the context of how colors are used.Color theories create a logical structure for color. For example, if we have an assortment of fruits and vegetables, we can organize them by color and place them on a circle that shows the colors in relation to each other.
The Color Wheel
A color circle, based on red, yellow and blue, is traditional in the field of art. Sir Isaac Newton developed the first circular diagram of colors in 1666. Since then, scientists and artists have studied and designed numerous variations of this concept. Differences of opinion about the validity of one format over another continue to provoke debate. In reality, any color circle or color wheel which presents a logically arranged sequence of pure hues has merit.Primary Colors: Red, yellow and blue
In traditional color theory (used in paint and pigments), primary colors are the 3 pigment colors that can not be mixed or formed by any combination of other colors. All other colors are derived from these 3 hues.
Secondary Colors: Green, orange and purple
These are the colors formed by mixing the primary colors.
Tertiary Colors: Yellow-orange, red-orange, red-purple, blue-purple, blue-green & yellow-green
These are the colors formed by mixing a primary and a secondary color. That's why the hue is a two word name, such as blue-green, red-violet, and yellow-orange.
ASSIGNMENT:
1. there are three basic categories of color
theory that are logical and useful : The color wheel, color harmony, and the
context of how colors are used.
The catagories of color had three theory logical,
there are: the color wheel, color harmony and the the context of how colors are
used
2. Sir Isaac Newton developed the first
circular diagram of colors in 1666
The first circular diagaram of colors in 1666 was
developed by Sir Issac Newton
3. Since then, scientists and artists have
studied and designed numerous variations of this concept.
The concept had variations numerous by the
scientist and artist since then.
