Description

The Premier Guide for Painters to Understanding Color!

Painter’s Guide to Color was written foremost with the painter in mind. However, weavers, textile designers, interior decorators, and commercial artists have all benefited from award-winning artist Stephen Quiller’s innovative and accessible color theory techniques. Painter’s  Guide to Color will help you to train your eye to see and use color in exciting ways.

  • Includes the newly updated Quiller Color Wheel® which can be used by studio and outdoor painters alike.    
  • Presents the Quiller Wheel® system of mixing colors. Learn how to create any color imaginable with his 12-color palette and free yourself from needing to purchase and tow around premixed tube colors.    
  • Features a historical selection of master painters who have used color in inspiring ways.
  • Presents a wide range of fundamental color theory concepts, including the value intensity foundation, harmonious and discordant colors, and how to use “grays” to maximum benefit. Plus, discusses the numerous painting techniques, giving tips about how each can be used to maximize color expression.
  • Includes an innovative chapter on the emotional use of color, which features up to 14 ranges within each of the six major color families and lists the emotions in subjects that each of these colors can evoke.
  • Displays six value-intensity charts of the primary, secondary and intermediate colors. This is the essential concept for thoroughly understanding color.
