Color Terminology

Primary Colors: Colors at their basic essence; those colors that cannot be created by mixing others.

                    Complementary Colors: Those colors located opposite each other on a color wheel.                     

Secondary Colors: Those colors achieved by a mixture of two primaries.                     

Tertiary Colors: Those colors achieved by a mixture of primary and secondary hues.                    

Analogous Colours: Those colours located close together on a colour wheel.

Complementary colours bring out the best in each other. When fully saturated complements are brought together, interesting effects are noticeable. This may be a desirable illusion, or a problem if creating visuals that are to be read.

Vibrating Boundaries

Visual Illusions

"Complementary colours make a strange pair. They are opposite, yet they require each other. They incite each other to maximum vividness when together; and annihilate each other when mixed."— Johannes Itten

Three colours or four?

Three colours or four?

• Advancing hues are most often thought to have less visual weight than the receding hues.

• Most often warm, saturated, light value hues are "active" and visually advance.

• Cool, low saturated, dark value hues are "passive" and visually recede.

• Tints or hues with a low saturation appear lighter than shades or highly saturated colours.

• Some colours remain visually neutral or indifferent

Active & Passive ColoursThe colour wheel can be divided into ranges that are visually active or passive. Active colours will appear to advance when placed against passive hues. Passive colours appear to recede when positioned against active hues.BUT the tint or hue can change the dominace
