Why read it?
1 author picked Confident Color as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Color is visual and this book shows you through images how colors interact with each other and what constitutes good color combinations.
She sets the foundation for rules and color strategies, but she moves on to incorporate various color wheels and finished paintings using those selected colors. I love how she categorizes various color wheels from traditional to bold, opaque earth, old masters, and modern palettes.
She also shows paintings using various color combinations from triads to analogous color combinations and all the other possible combos.
I love this book because it is educational and visually beautiful.
From Sandra's list on mixed media acrylic painting techniques.
