The Principles of Harmony and Contrast of Colors by Michel Eugene Chevreul.
Principle #1
Put a color on a canvas and surround the space with a complementary color.
Principle #2Place white beside a color to heighten its tone. Removing white lessens the intensity.
Principle #3
Put black beside a color to weaken its tone, an example is with yellow.
Principle #4 Put grey beside a color to render it more brilliant.
Principle #5
Put a dark color near a different but lighter color to heighten the tone of the first color.
Principle #6Beside each color put two tints of different tones of the same color
to create chiaroscuro.(Chiaroscuro means the treatment of light and dark parts in a work of art to create contrast)
