COLOR THEORY
Most of us have been taught the 12-Color Wheel. It makes sense, it’s pretty, and so on. BUT BUT BUT something clicked for me when I discovered the 10 Color Wheel and started playing with it. A guy named Munsell is responsible for coming up with this idea, as I understand it. It just makes SO much sense.
- There’s a wonderful website www.ApplePainter.com where there’s lots of info.
- A fabulous little FREE e-course on color theory (10-xolor wheel) at http://howtobeachildrensbookillustrator.wordpress.com/free-color-mastery/
- Here’s a collection of images and info I’ve put cobbled together into a Munsell Color Theory from a few sources, ApplePainter, Gouache for Illustrators, and other sources. )I awaited permission from ApplePainter for over a month to post this, and never heard back).

Here are some of my doodles and paintings using this new-to-me color theory.
