WHAT IS IT

COLORS

What is color?

Colour, or color, is a property of light as seen by people. The international spelling of the word is colour,
the word color is used in American English. “Primary colors” can be mixed to make the other colors. Red,
yellow, and blue are the three traditional primary colors.

Color is the element of art that is produced when light, striking an object, is reflected back to the eye:
that's the objective definition. But in art design, color has a slew of attributes which are primarily
subjective. Those include characteristics such as harmony — when two or more colors are brought
together and produce a satisfying effective response; and temperature — a blue is considered warm or
cool depending on whether it leans towards purple or green and a red whether it leans towards yellow
or blue. 

Subjectively, then, color is a sensation, a human reaction to a hue arising in part from the optic nerve,
and in part from education and exposure to color, and perhaps in the largest part, simply from
the human senses.

Colorful Colors

 The world is full of light. Visible light is made of seven wavelength groups. These are the colors
you see in a rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

 Within the visible light of the electromagnetic spectrum are still more wavelengths. Each
wavelength is perceived by our eyes as a different color.

 The reddish colors are the long wavelengths. The greenish colors are the mid-size wavelengths.
The bluish colors are the short wavelengths.

 Red, orange, and yellow are warm colors, while violet and blue are cool colors. Green is said to
be the most neutral color.

 Warm colors make a room feel warm, while cool colors make a room feel cool.

 Warm colors make the room seem smaller because the walls feel closer while cool colors make
the walls feel further away which makes it feel larger.
  Hue is another name for the word color, and value describes the darkness or lightness of a color.

 Black is the absence of color and is therefore not a color. White is the blending of all colors and
is a color.

 Most people see color very clearly, but there are some people who are color-blind.

3 types of color

 Primary colors are blue, red, and yellow. These are pure colors that have no component other
than themselves.

 Secondary colors are orange, green, and purple. These are composed of the primary colors on
either side of it on the color wheel. For example: Orange = red+yellow, Green = blue+yellow,
Purple = blue+red.

 Tertiary colors are orange-red, orange-yellow, yellow-green, blue-green, blue-purple, and red-
purple. Tertiary colors have more of one color than the other.
