From the Back Cover

Color Workbook is both a color theory reference and a workbook of hands-on color and design theoretical studies. The first part of the book emphasizes Color Study, a thorough exploration of the understanding of color as an art element. Topics include the attributes of color (hue, value, and saturation), the elements of design, the principles of design, designing with color, and color in art. For artists and designers, who can use the book as a reference and a self guided studio course in color theory.
