“It is impossible to imagine our life without color, but what is color? How exactly do we understand it, organize and use its power so that it helps us in creativity, communication and self -expression? I set my task to introduce the reader to the concepts of color theory and examine them in detail, and in particular in the application to painting with oil and acrylic. We will discuss a wide range of useful topics that will undoubtedly allow you to reach a new level of color understanding - from the properties of the electromagnetic spectrum to pigments, color schemes and the psychology of color perception. The more you know about the organization and mixing of colors, the better you will be prepared to achieve your creative goals. Let"s plunge into the world of color and study this amazing phenomenon! ” (Patti Mollika)
