Value

35
Q

Based on the viewer’s reaction to colors when they are placed next to each other.

A

Partitive color

36
Q

Series of progressive intervals that are so close that individual steps cannot be distinguished. Seamless transition.

A

Gradient

37
Q

Combination of unequal proportions of all the primaries.

A

Broken hue

38
Q

Color harmony with only one hue with varying value and intensity.

A

Monochromatic

39
Q

Best describes the color appearance of the light source and the light emitted from it.

A

Color temperature

40
Q

Imitates the results of mixing process colors. This display mode facilitates working on-screen for print production. All 100% = black. 0% = white.

A

CMYK mode

41
Q

Addition of gray to a hue.

A

Tone

42
Q

Standardized color reproduction system. Diff. manufacturers can all refer to this system to make sure colors match without direct contact with one another.

A

Pantone color matching system

43
Q

Refers to the visual agreement of all parts of a work. Also called color chords, these are time-tested combinations that work well together.

A

Color harmonies

44
Q

Based on the additive color system and provides info concerning light rays and transparent color. Since these are combinations of colored light, when all the primaries, red blue green, are combined, white results.

A

Light wheel

45
Q

Utilizes 1 hue and 2 hues that lie on either side of its direct complement, forming a Y.

A

Split complementary

46
Q

Colors lower in value (darker), more highly saturated, and warmer in hue.

A

Advancing colors

47
Q

The screen displays a basic assortment of hues, range of groups, black and white in a box/circle called color palette.

A

Color monitor

48
Q

Best known for his book, Art of Color, and condensed version of The Elements of Color.

A

Johannes Itten

49
Q

The life’s work of this American color theorist led to his system being adopted by the United States Bureau of Standards as the acceptable language of color.

A

Albert Munsell

50
Q

A technique that softly blends hues to create a hazy effect.

A

Sfumato

51
Q

He was one of the first modern thinkers to investigate and record the function of the eye and its interpretation of color, rather than the properties of light.

A

Johann Wolfgang von goethe

52
Q

He was not able to mix pigments of 2 or 3 hues to obtain white because his theory was based on the mixing of light.

A

Sir isaac newton

53
Q

Itten developed this color arrangement for his Bauhaus preliminary course, 1919.

A

Color star

54
Q

The teaching diagram Josef Albers used was this. It had red, yellow, blue at its points. Orange, violet, and green at the midpoints, with red-gray, yellow-gray, and blue-gray in between.

A

Color triangle

55
Q

In his book, he presented red, yellow, blue as the primary hues, which he termed “primitives.”

A

Moses Harris

56
Q

His experiments were concerned with the optical mixing that occurs in pointillism.

A

57
Q

Aristotle wrote this book and this was the first known book about color.

Q

He verified that all hues could be obtained from mixtures of primaries – red, yellow, and blue.

He discovered that as a ray of white light passes and is bent or refracted through a prism, it is broken into an array of colors, or spectral hues – red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.

A

Sir isaac newton

62
Q

He places yellow at the top of his diagram because it was the brightest of the hues and the closest visually to light.

A

After-imaging

70
Q

A

Color tree

71

Philip Otto Runge wrote this book in 1810 and used a spherical diagram to arrange 12 hues giving the first 3D color model.

A

The color sphere

75
Q

A complementary hue is the hue that occupies the position directly opposite on a color wheel.

A

Albert Munsell

76
Q

Michel Eugene Chevreul wrote this book.

77
Q

An English physicist who was interested purely in the physics of colors.

A
