Color Fundamentals with 100 Color Schemes, Hardcover

The study of color is not just what we see with our eyes, but must include a broad exploration of the physical, physiological, psychological, and aesthetic components of what we experience and identify as color. This groundbreaking work fully embraces the multidimensionality of color, and strives to imbue the reader with "a comprehensive, integrated concept upon which is based the power to use color intelligently and effectively."

The second publication of renowned theorist Maitland Graves is as foundational to the study, creation, and instruction of visual art as the classic The Foundations of Art and Design. Thorough yet accessible, this title will satisfy academic art theorists and practical artists alike. With swatches of over 100 color schemes plus instructions for creating your own, there are many practical applications for the reader.
