This item was for a class I am taking, the book itself is very detailed and wordy, it isn't for young beginners in art, but as a college class book, it is ok.
Hands down the best textbook
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I'm currently a Color Theory student at Savannah College of Art & Design, and was required to pick this exspenive book (not even hardcovered), but I didn't mind. This book has turned out to be the most interesting and fascinating piece of material I've read in my life. It deeply explores both the additive (RGB), subtractive pigment (RBY), and subtractive process (CMY) theories without coming off dry at all... written very much for the average person. Even moreso, the big plus is that it sets aside an ample space for discussing the additive theory in regard to computer apps such as Photoshop and Illustrator, great for me, since I'm a Visual Effects major. Yes, it's a tad exspensive, however you will not be dissapointed!
Remarkable book
