WARM and COOL colors are colors that reflect emotional values. They add warmth or coolness to a painting, handknitted or crocheted item or to any number of other artistic pieces.
The WARM colors are: Yellow to Red-Violet on the Color Wheel.
The COOL colors are: Yellow-Green to Violet on the Color Wheel.
Next week I will be discussing COLOR HARMONIES; colors that Go Together. Learning COLOR HARMONIES helps us develop harmonies in color and color patterns that are useful when developing designs for hand knit or crochet projects, painting, and in many other artistic pursuits.
Thanks Unique, I enjoyed the lesson!
ReplyDeleteI saw your sidebar info about BeautiControl cosmetics ... understanding warm and cool is important in the cosmetics world, isn't it? I worked for Estee Lauder, and that was a very big deal!
ReplyDeleteVery nice and easy to understand!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the information!!
ReplyDeleteI was great to read back and see what tints and tones and shades are. Never did like "art" class in school. I went with ceramics instead.
