NEW Color and Color Theory Books
Products
The cover attracted me to this book. It shows the same graphic done on 4 colorways. This clearly illustrates the effect color can and does have on design. The subtitle is : A Review of Past Tradition and Modern Theories. To quote the back cover (always a good resource) "This is an essential basic book on color, written by the best-known colorist of our times, for beginners seeking a through grounding in the comprehension and solution of color problems and for mature artists and teachers intere...
Another excellent book from Sally Milner Publishing in Australia. Trish Burr says that White Work with Color differs slightly from her previous books. Burr is a prolific needlework designer, teacher and author. Her books include Color Confidence in Embroidery, Needle Painting Embroidery, Long and Short Stitch Embroidery, Redoute's Finest Flowers in Embroidery, and Miniature Needle Painting. There are more but these are the ones I have in stock (or try to).All of the designs and project...
This is a new book from the excellent Milner Craft Series of books. With this title and the subtitle of
Silks, Stitches, Beads and Cords I think it will be in many categories. Quoting from the back cover
"An exciting collection of bright and beautiful collaged and embroidered pieces, Effie Mitrofanis shares with readers what can happen when a sense of playfulness is allowed to combine with creativity".
"The elements that tie this book together are beautifully coloured silkd, patterns of e...
When I first saw this book I thought "what is it?". but the cover was gorgeous so I ordered it for NewNeedlepoint.com. I know very little about the books I buy to sell here most of the time.
I gave this book as a present to a header friend of mine and she loved it. her "review" of it is that it is an amazing books with color & color combination ideas as well as some great design ideas.> The idea here is interesting and the beading examples are, without doubt, the best I have ever seen (acco...
Faber Birren's other book, Principles of Color, has been a surprising success here on NewNeedlepoint.com. In that listing I describe it as a basic book on Color Theory and more. This book was written later then Principles of Color. The sub-title for Color & Human Response is:" Aspects of Light and Color Bearing on the Reactions of Living Things and the Welfare of Human Beings". Well, that is quite a sub-title. To quote the back cover of the book " Faber Birren pioneered in the field of functio...
I do not see these books before I order them, wholesale, and have only the sketchiest of descriptions. Sometimes the book is spot-on and sometimes I am surprised (or dismayed). This book on color belongs in the Surprised group. This is not a color theory book. It has no instructions on how to use color or correct color mistakes. What is does have is 145 pages of absolutely gorgeous pictures of color. All color, how it is used, lived with and how it can attract or amaze you. The book is divide...
The subtitle on this book is "Making Color Sense Out Of Color Theory".It looks like an excellent book. On the back cover is a painting of the author's , in this piece he demonstrates what can be done using the Triadic Color Scheme. The book is bases on something the author calls the *Quiller Wheel*. It is his precise guide to planning Harmonious color relationships. The book also has a large full color fold out of the Quiller Wheel. This appears to be a fascinating book about how to best us...
