Two Dimensional Design II - Color

This course reinforces the fundamentals of visual organization studied in Two-Dimensional Design I: Black and White and introduces the element of color. Color theory is studied through painting and collage. The basics of color mixing are emphasized as students examine color interaction, color perception and color observation. Students explore the expressive potential of color, the use of color to describe spatial structure and the effects of light on color in addition to the effects of colors on each other. Students study both formal color schemes and the use of color in relevant art historical styles. Note: This course is offered at Delaware College of Art & Design (DCAD).
