Not just for artists… 4.5 StarsI actually got this to use for my children’s homeschool art studies. With topics such as color theory, which discuses the basics like the color wheel and warm & cool colors, to overviews of notable art movements (Impressionism, Pop Art, etc.) that includes the color pallets alongside the background basics, this is a good educational paperback.I think this could be useful to anyone interesting in painting, whether it’s on canvas or home decorating. The pages such as “Northern Lights” and “Pastel Sunrise” are certainly inspiring. There are all kinds of color combinations and styles. Some you might never consider otherwise.Excellent!! This will get your creative juices going! The book has so many beautiful palettes and explains why these work together so you can easily create your own. The selections can be used for any medium from paints to fabric, to yarn to anything that is color. Excellent!This book made me think of using color in a totally and exciting new way. Great inspiration for the water color enthusiast!Water colors has intimidated me and fascinated me. But this book makes things feel more reachable. Although it does not give specific techniques on how to paint with water colors (strokes, brushes to use) if does give you a fantastic array of color combinations that will make you want to immediately get started.The author takes a great deal of time to explain color and what works together. Then she has short sections devoted to different color palettes/combinations and the colors that look good together as well as two examples in each section. So you you a good feel for what you might want to try. What I really liked are the color combinations that I never would have thought would go together.This book made me think of using color in a totally and exciting new way. If you are looking for inspiration or just love the vibrancy of colors around you this book is sure to please!
