What is colour theory?
Colour theory is a fundamental concept in art and design that explores the relationships and interactions between colours. It examines how colours combine, contrast, and evoke emotions. The colour wheel categorizes colours into primary, secondary, and tertiary hues, while concepts like complementary, analogous, and triadic schemes guide effective colour combinations.
Warm and cool colours influence mood and perception. Tints, shades, and tones alter intensity. Understanding colour theory empowers artists and designers to create visually harmonious and impactful compositions, fostering a deeper appreciation and manipulation of colour in various creative disciplines.
