Quilt Artists Guide to Color

Description Why study color theory? Color is energy, and the best way for you to control that energy is to learn to harness it. Just like people, colors behave differently in combination with other colors. The system of how colors interact is based on centuries-old theories that stand to this day, even as we add new and intriguing information about how light is seen by the human eye, how our brains interpret it, and how color affects the human psyche. Learning to harness the energy of color, understanding the interaction of colors and becoming acquainted with as many varieties of color as possible will make it easier and more enjoyable for you to make beautiful, interesting and successful quilts, jewelry or whatever kind of art your heart desires. So, come along with instructor and quilt artist Heather Thomas as she introduces you to a system that just might rock your world.
