- 3. We only see a small section of the light in the world

- 9. Cones and rods Cones see color best. Rods see shape and in low light
- 10. Additive and Subtractive Color Light Pigment
- 11. Additive color
- 12. Primary colors of Subtractive colors are: RedRed YellowYellow BlueBlue
- 13. It is called SUBTRACTIVE color because the object absorbs all the colors except the one you see. To see White, you SUBTRACT all color.
- 14. Artificial light vs. Natural light
- 16. Daylight Tungsten light This is because the two samples are different batches of the same color dyed with completely different chemicals or that the material is made of different chemicals. This is phenomenon is called metameric colors
- 17. Paint vs. Dye
- 18. Pigments are solids that get mixed with a binder. The Binder dries and the paint stays put.
- 19. Dyes dissolve in their binder and bind with the Fibers IN the fabric. Dye is transparent.
- 20. Basic terms
- 22. HUE= COLOR NAME
- 23. Value
- 24. VALUE = HOW MUCH BLACK AND WHITE IS IN A COLOR
- 25. Tints
- 26. SATURATION= How Bright or dull a color is
- 27. SATURATION The more grey or complement it possesses the more neutral it appears The closer to even two opposites get, more neutral it appears
- 28. The lower the saturation the closer to neutral the color is Beige Wheat Grey
- 29. Neutrals project using chromatic neutrals (chromatic because we used color, not just Black and White or 50% complement)
- 30. Cool greys cool black (mars black) mixed with white
- 31. Warm Greys Warm black (ivory black) mixed with white)
- 32. Neutral made with only B& W (achromatic) Neutral made with 50/50 Opposites
- 34. Markers and color pencils refer to warm and cool grey
- 35. Color schemes
- 36. SPLIT-COMPLEMENTARY • A color combination whereby a hue is used with the hues lying to either side of its direct complementary.
- 37. Monochromatic • Referring to a color combination based on variations in value and saturation of a single hue, sometimes with the addition of some neutral colors.
- 38. ANALOGOUS • Those lying next to each other on the color wheel • (usually 3).
- 39. TRIAD• Three colors equal distant from each other on the color wheel.
- 40. COMPLEMENTARY• Colors that lie opposite each other on a color wheel. When placed side by side they will intensify each other visually; when mixed as pigments they will dull each other.
- 41. Color extensions How powerful one color is compared to another. We are not talking about mixing.
- 42. Color Extension and Analysis
- 43. 9 4 3 6 8 6 Goethe power of light
- 44. How color affect color Fugitive Sensations
- 45. FUGITIVE SENSATIONS Simultaneous contrast: color moves away from the surrounding color Color assimilation: the spreading affect of colors when similar sizes Successive contrast: The after-image
- 46. Successive Contrast Aka Retinal Fatigue
- 49. Simultaneous Contrast Colors shift their hues into the direction of the complementary color if the color is small Colors look brighter if they are equal Colors look lighter or darker with respect to the background
- 50. Simultaneous Contrast Just like drinking orange juice after a bite of maple syrup pancakes, It makes the juice SEEM more sour.
- 51. Simultaneous Contrast Two colors, side by side, interact with one another and change our perception accordingly. This is strongest when the colors are complements
- 52. Hue induction thru simultaneous contrast The target color seems to be tinged with the complementary color of the surround (most noticeable with a gray target).
- 53. Simultaneous contrast using value Though the colors of the middle squares seem to look the same, they are different,
- 55. Bezold A person and an effect
- 56. Color Assimilation When colors spread into each other instead of producing a contrast effect
- 57. Red changing in respect to it’s surroundings
- 58. Wilhelm von Bezold's (4) color illusion remains a neurological puzzle today. Both pictures contain the same colors but their different positions relative to one another lead to extreme changes in color. The same red is perceived as red-violet in one picture and as orange-red in the other. Blue and yellow change their hues less because - in this case - only two neighboring elements are different.
- 61. HUE= COLOR NAME
- 62. VALUE = HOW MUCH BLACK AND WHITE IS IN A COLOR
- 63. SATURATION= HOW MUCH GREY A COLOR HAS The more grey it possesses the more neutral it appears
- 64. The lower the saturation the closer to neutral the color is Beige Wheat Grey Black and White
- 65. Leonardo DaVinci Famous for his use of chiaroscuro (extreme lights and darks) Used ariel perspective (the dulling of colors that are far away)
- 66. Newton Used a prism to understand the idea that white light was made of ALL colors of light Used scientific principles to understand color
- 67. Chevreul Simultaneous Contrast 72 part color wheel Color is perceived 1830’s
- 68. Runge This artist was a devote Christian which influenced his color theory He felt the trinity was represented by the primary colors.

- 84. He used chiaroscuro to add drama to his paintings Leonardo DaVinci
- 85. What are the Primary Colors in Subtractive Color mixing
- 87. It is called SUBTRACTIVE color because the object absorbs all the colors except the one you see. To see White, you SUBTRACT all color.
