WAVELENGTH

Every color has its own wavelength

We see each color differently through the various sizes of Wavelengths

The shortest wavelengths are bent the most and the longest are bent to the least

Dark colors: Lower Scale- shades

Prior to the 1850s natural wool colors (white, brown) were used to weave

Blankets would be divided into different values of brown (light to dark)

Repetition of patterns and colors to emphasize the values

INTENSITY: THE RELATIVE BRIGHTNESS OR DULLNESS OF A COLOR

Aka: “Chroma” or “Saturation”Edward Hopper and Stuart Davis

The intensity of any color is the most ducked when it is mixed with its color compliment
