Color is life, for a world without color seems dead. As a flame produces light, light produces color. As intonation lends color to the spoken word, color lends spiritually realized sound to form. Harmony implies balance, symmetry of forces. - Johannes Itten, from The Art of Color

Transcript of ART OF COLOR - Shane · PDF file- Johannes Itten, from The Art of Color. LIGHT IMPRESSION....
Color is life, for a world without color seems dead. As aflame produces light, light produces color. As intonation
lends color to the spoken word, color lends spirituallyrealized sound to form. Harmony implies balance,
symmetry of forces.
