Theory of color

Hi guys! Welcome to second chapter of my blog. Today I will make a brief explanation about how color theory works. What’s the Color Theory? Theory of Color is a tool of great importance for design, art and everyday life, influencing our emotions, perceptions and decisions that we often do not realize. The study of color theory helped us how to interact with colors and use them in the most effective way.     One of the main inputs of all Color Theory is the color wheel. It is a circular representation of all the colors of the visual spectrum, organized in such a way that opposing colors face each other and complementary colors are close to each other. The color wheel allows you to identify primary or pure colors, and those that are considered derivatives, that is, the result of a mixture of colors. If you draw a line through the center of the wheel, you will separate the warm colors (reds, oranges, and yellows) from the cool colors (blues, greens, and violets). Warm colors are ...

Introduction Hello everyone, I'm Alex! Welcome to another chapter of my blog. Today we will learn the correct use and a little history about color theory. The first person to explain the nature and origin of colors was the scientist Isaac Newton.  You may wonder who Isaac Newton was?  Well readers ... He was a great English scientific physicist of the 17th century who really marked a milestone in history by explaining the laws that govern both the movement of bodies in the Universe, as well as that of objects on Earth, through the Law of Universal Gravitation and the three Laws of Classical Mechanics. However, somewhat less popular, but no less important, was his work on light and colors. He observed that white light was what gave rise to colors, it was decomposed into them thanks to the properties of refraction. Through an experiment with a refracting prism, he observed how light decomposed into different colors. Furthermore, he noticed that opaque objects absorbed some color...
