This second edition has been carefully reviewed and revised throughout. Presented in a new larger format, it includes much-enhanced sections on key colour principles such as colour perception, visual structure, materials and techniques, psychological experience of colour, and colour composition in digital formats. Generously illustrated - including all-new, contemporary examples - this book provides a unique set of tools that makes the complex theory of colour accessible and practical.
