Color Theory ((4 Credits))

Catalog description

Understanding the interaction of color is a critical component of studio and digital art studies. In this course, we will learn how colors interact with each other as well as their effects on human perception. While the emphasis of this course is on the practice of methodically demonstrating color relationships in a series of hands-on assignments, the conceptual properties of color will be explored within the color studies as they relate to cultural/symbolic meaning, form and perception. Since critique and appropriate verbalization of color theory is a critical component of this course, each assignment will be accompanied by an explanatory statement.
