Fractured Space –Full Value Extension with Color Project 4 Fractured Space –Full Value Extension with Color
Achromatic (colorless) value: black and white Color has three components: HUE VALUE INTENSITY
HUE Hue- corresponds to local color and is the quality that distinguishes one color from another-redness, blueness. Color warmness: red, yellow Color coolness: blue Primary colors: RED YELLOW BLUE
The Color Wheel
Color warmness: red, yellow, orange Color coolness: blue, green,
Analogous colors= hues side-by-side on the color wheel Secondary colors: Green Orange Violet They are obtained by mixing two primaries: Yellow+Blue= ? Yellow+Red=? Red+Blue= ? Analogous colors= hues side-by-side on the color wheel Analogous colors- they create almost no contrast
Complementary Colors Hues opposite each other on the color wheel Examples: 1) RED and GREEN (yellow+blue) 2) YELLOW and PURPLE 3) Guess the 3rd pair: ??? Complementary colors offer maximum contrast
Intensity or Chroma Chroma is a term meaning color and/or the quality of a color combining hue and saturation It describes the vividness or dullness of a hue Easy to remember: INTENSITY
Split Complementary Beginners'’ formula Reduced tension, but still enough visual contrast 1. Pick a base color. 2. Use 2 colors adjacent to its complement
