Colour Second Edition: A workshop for artists, designers 2nd Edition, Kindle Edition

Over all Color is pretty good. Some parts/exercises were a little confusing and difficult to achieve. After a while the color exercises seemed hard to differentiate.

Fantastic book on Colour and color theory. A wealth of information and a great reference. As your work grows, this book will become more relevant and useful - you'll see the information in new light. I highly recommend it for all skill levels.

A great teaching and learning tool.

This is a great way to experience color, and learn the how and why's along the way.

I was under the impression that this would help all painters. I am a pastelist and this book was of no use to me. It is mainly for oil painters.

This book is all about hue, value and saturation and is aimed at everyone who uses colour in their work, be it textile, graphic, 3d, as well as fine artists. You can approach it in two ways, just read it or do the practical assignments and to do the latter you will have to purchase some materials and equipment.The author provides a list of manufacturers of gouache paint with specific paints to buy to ensure consistency, as well as paper, card, brushes, glue etc, so be warned there is additional things to buy if you want to do the assignmentsIt starts off nice and basic to ease you in, and you are not expected to have any previous experience in the arts or drawing. The assignments use a collage format to help you produce your work and build your skills. Some of the work had me struggling a bit, but I found that it helped if I copied the examples first, then produced my own ones with lots of different attempts to get a good result, plus plenty of analysis on why they work or don'tI'm about half way through the book now, and I'm already feeling a lot more more comfortable using and mixing colour, plus understanding the relationship between hue, value and saturation, and how to manipulate them to get the effect that I wantI can't recommend it highly enough for anyone who does any type of art

Unique material on colour contrast and harmony of many sorts, with exercises that can result in original artworks. Sampling colours from real objects is a super idea. Very high production values and printed colour accuracy.

Makes colour so much easier to understand. Lots of diagrams explaining colour and also many workshops to try out for yourself. If you're buying this version expecting English English from the title just be aware the contents are in US English. :)

Recommended by a painting teacher, this book has some great exercises to get you to thinking about colour and how it works together with other colours. Highly recommended

Really good to help with colour in any way you choose to use it. I wanted it for painting. Seller good arrived in allocated time.
