"This book is a treasure of great images and very practical and creative color assignments that are easily adapted to many media" Susan Makov, Weber State University
"Hornung writes with expertise on the subject of color. Well written, explained and researched, this is a gem for those who love color, or who want to understand and use it" Patrick Mooney, The National College of Art and Design
"This excellent book is based on practical exercises that focus on relative experimentation with color in order to teach specific qualities and functions of color. It is clear, direct, and exciting" Nicholas Ruth, Hobart and William Smith Colleges
"A very accessible way for students to get to grips with the fundamentals of color theory and history: hue, saturation, harmony, perception and digital color mixing" David Tinn, East Surrey College
In David Hornung's book Color: A Workshop for Artists and Designers, you will find all you need to know about color theory and its application. With its sequence of specially designed assignments and in–depth discussions, it effectively bridges the gap between color theory and practice to inspire confidence and understanding in anyone who works with color. This second edition has been carefully reviewed and revised throughout. Presented in a new larger format, it includes much–enhanced sections on key color principles such as color perception, visual structure, materials and techniques, psychological experience of color and color composition in digital formats. Generously illustrated – including all–new, contemporary examples – this book provides a unique set of tools that makes the complex theory of color accessible and practical and is an invaluable resource for art students and professionals alike. This color and design book provides an extensive coverage on color theory and practice whether you're a beginner, an amateur or a professional designer.
