Color wheel

What’s the color wheel? In the last article, we started to talk about the color theory.

Why did we choose to design the color wheel in this specific order?

Why can’t the colors be used in a different arrangement, and more importantly, how do I pick colors that go well together?

In both of these next posts, I’ll try to address some of these questions.

The color wheel

We referred to this picture as the color scale in the last article.

This definition is accurate, though not entirely.

In fact, if you search for this phrase, you can get a wheel that has numerous additional colors and shades.

How to dispose color

At fisrt the color wheel was built by artists.Then Newton changed it while studying optics.

We should first answer the question, “Why this disposition?”

The first person to create the color wheel attempted to combine colors in a pleasing way; therefore, the answer is not that simple.

The primary issue is that feelings and cognitive thought influence how we perceive color.

Theorists have attempted to develop an equation all through the history of color theory in order to comprehend “color harmony” and the sense of a pleasing hue.

The formula read:

Also, the various letters stand for age, culture, and color (C).

We all perceive color differently, so the discussion on this subject is still ongoing.

In the end, the painters’ intended mood serves as the foundation of the color harmony.

Why this disposition?

The painters required a location where they could comprehend color gradation and a straightforward method for utilizing them.

The color wheel employed in history is quite helpful because all the colors are close together and have a similar hue, as opposed to the complementary colors, which are opposite one another.

Because it is well known that the color gradations are arranged in this way during a well-known example, the study of optics is explicitly stated here:
