As someone who sorts anything and everything into color flows, I love the hurleygurley photo<\/a> site sent in by Christelle. \u00a0Its fabulous.<\/p>\n

It reminds me of Jinny Beyers book Confidence for Quilters<\/a>. Although its over ten years old, its one of the best books I know on creating color combinations that flow beautifully together. Her Three Key Ingredients for a successful color scheme:<\/p>\n

1. Use several shades of the same color,\"colorconfidence.jpg\"<\/p>\n

2. Use a deep dark,<\/p>\n

3. Use an accent.<\/p>\n

Check it out of the library even if you are not a quilter. It describes a process for making color decisions that is very different from the traditional craft books. And very successful.<\/p>\n

Tutorial Update<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are sticking with complementary colors for awhile. They affect mixing, composition, expression, temperature, movement and some things I can’t think of off the top of my head. Its a very complex part of color study so we are going to go deeper in our explorations starting on February 12th.<\/p>\n

I would like to add a few things to the Materials List<\/a> for Part 2 of the tutorials; some additional clay colors, another Kemper cutter and a prism.<\/p>\n

You can get the equilateral\u00a0prism from PhysLink<\/a> suppliers for under $5.00 plus shipping. Sometimes stores that cater to teachers will carry them and you can also find them in the shops at science museums. If you want to see what the spectrum version of RGB and CMY really look like – get a prism and I’ll show you how in a couple weeks. Its really cool.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
