Product Description

INTERNATIONALLY RENOWNED ARTIST and best selling author Stephen Quiller shows readers how to discover their own personal "colour sense" in Color Choices, a book that offers readers a fresh perspective on perfecting their own colour styles. With the help of his own "Quiller Wheel," a special foldout wheel featuring 68 precisely placed colours, the author shows artists how they can develop their own unique colour blends. First, Quiller demonstrates how to use the wheel to interpret colour relationships and mix colours more clearly. Then be explains, step by step, how to develop five structured colour schemes, apply underlays and overlays, and use colour in striking, unusual ways. This book will bring out every artist's unique sense of colour whether he or she works in oil, watercolour, acrylics, gouache, or casein.

5.0 out of 5 stars the best books of practical color theory and application, 15 Oct 1997
By A Customer
Stephen Quiller has his own theory for the uses of color in artwork. It is easy to read, follow and has lots of examples. These examples include poor choices, as well as good ones, which helps the artist to distiguish by visuals, the difference. An excellent reference for working and learning artists. It makes quick work of the confusion regarding complementary, secondary and tertiary colours and shows the direct co-relations. It also comes with a wall poster reference to the Quiller colour wheel. Colours are listed by standard commercial names which makes it easy for the artist to locate the proper colour with which they wish to work. All sorts of little hints to help the struggling artist handle media more easily.
