A creative's guide to color: ?how to observe it in your surroundings, combine it into unique palettes, and apply it fearlessly in art, craft, and design.
Artist Ana Bianchi is on a mission to help people use color confidently in any creative practice. This playful and highly visual book invites you to refresh your relationship to color by observing the world around you.
Each chapter takes a deep dive into a different color scheme-from monochromes to the famous "pop of color"-and helps readers find inspiration in art history, travel, household objects, and more.
Hands-on projects feature a wide variety of media and applications, from painting a still life to making a gallery wall in your home.
Quotes, stories, vibrant visual examples, and insightful guidance provide an accessible master class in becoming color curious and creating the consistent and rewarding habit of observing, analyzing, and creating with color.
This book is perfect for art students seeking to establish their personal voice, creative types hoping to integrate more color into their lives, and professional artists eager for a new perspective.
