    About this ebook

    Discover your true color voice!

    Acrylic Color Explorations will have you seeing the world around you in a new way as color theory becomes engaging, easy-to-understand and fun. Not only will you achieve a basic understanding of color and pigments, but author Chris Cozen will also guide you through a personal exploration of color in 30 exercises using acrylic paint.

    Go beyond the red-yellow-blue understanding of the color wheel by exploring the work of several artists who work with color in unique ways. Determining when to introduce a calming color or when to turn the color volume up is a skill that can be developed through practice and intention, and with Acrylic Color Explorations you will learn how to do both!

    • Learn 33 techniques for incorporating and developing color in your paintings.
    • Explore practical color basics with exercises and color challenges that will help you determine your color "voice."
    • Discover secrets to mastering any creative color situation with 9 contributing artists!
    Embrace your true color voice today!
