Color Wheels

People always ask, what’s your favorite color?  Pink is usually what blurts out, but honestly, I LOVE all the colors.  I could eat every single color like candy.  And I love color wheels.  I remember the color wheel on the wall of my art class in elementary school, then every single art class after that through college.  I still swoon when I see color arranged like this.

You can read about the history of color wheels here and here’s another post on the history of the color wheel.

Then there’s COLOURlovers, where you can work on your own color relationships and organization, and click here to read their fabulous article on the color wheel.
