Excellent resource ^ As I study drawing and move into painting I came to realize that I was very lacking in understanding color and how it works. The Leland book has been most helpful and will continue to be helpful as I work more and more with color.
Best Color Book out There! ^ This book changed the way I think about color! It has several templates to help you select color combinations that might be new to you. This book helped me to get out of my color rut! I create mosaic art, and I was easily able to transfer the information about painting to my glass and tile color selection. The information about color in this book can be applied to glass art, beading, tiling, collage, paper art etc...
Confident Color ^ Another great book from Nothern Lights. So much information in one place, helps to decipher the mystery and science of color. A wonderful reference source and the spiral binding allows the book to lie flat for ease of use.
