Color Property of Light

Color Color = perception of wavelength. Hue = position in the spectrum. Chroma = how pure a hue is in relation to gray. Saturation = degree of purity of a hue. Shade = A hue produced by the addition of black. Tint = hue produced by the addition of white. Intensity = hue brightness or dullness of a hue. One may lower the intensity by adding white or black. Luminance | Value = Amount of light reflected from a hue. Hues with a high content of white have a higher luminance or value.

Color Source Origin: Light Origen: Paints + Dyes + Pigments Additive System Subtractive System Model: RGB Model: RYB | CMYK

Color Wheel Source: Pigments Subtractive Color System Model: Red - Yellow - Blue

Color Wheel Primary Colors: Red | Yellow | Blue Secondary Colors: Green | Orange | Purple Mix: primary + primary Tertiary Colors: Yellow-orange, Red-Orange Red-Purple Blue-Purple Blue-Green Yellow-Green Mix: primary + secondary

Color Scheme | Harmony   Monochromatic A single hue and a selection of tints, tones and shades. Analogous Colors that are side by side, or very near each other on a color wheel. Complementary Colors appearing across from one another on a color wheel. These color combinations offer the maximum amount of contrast. Split-Complementary One hue plus two colors on either side of its complement. These provide less contrast than straight complements. Triad Three colors that are equidistant on a color wheel. Tetrad Two pairs of complimentary colors.

Color Scheme | Harmony Monochromatic Colors that are shade or tint variations of the same hue. Clean and elegant. Colors go well together. Produce a soothing effect. Easy on the eyes, especially with blue or green hues. http://www.2d-digital-art-guide.com/step-by-step-drawing.html

Color Scheme | Harmony Analogous Colors located adjacent (next) to each other on a color wheel. One color is used as a dominant color. Other colors are used to enrich the scheme. http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/basics-behind-color-theory-for-web-designer/

Color Scheme | Harmony Complementary Colors across from each other on a color wheel. Best when warm color against a cool color. High contrast. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Vincent_Willem_van_Gogh_076.jpg

Color Scheme | Harmony Split Complementary One hue plus two others equally spaced from its complement. High contrast without tension.

Color Scheme | Harmony Triadic Three hues equally distanced on a color wheel. Strong visual contrast. Retains harmony and color richness.

Color Scheme | Harmony Tetrad | Double Complementary Two complementary color sets; the distance between selected complementary pairs will effect the overall contrast of the final composition. Hard to harmonize.

Conclusion Color: It’s an element of design. Property of light Paint R Y G = Subtractive System Color Schemes | Harmony Monochromatic Analog Complementary Triadic Split Complementary Tetrad | Double Complementary http://www.worqx.com/color/combinations.htm http://www.wiu.edu/art/courses/design/color.htm http://www.colormatters.com/color-and-design/basic-color-theory http://elizabeth-martinez.wikispaces.com/Color+Schemes+Downloaded http://www.tigercolor.com/color-lab/color-theory/color-theory-intro.htm#Primary_colors
