This book provides valuable guidance on how to effectively blend primary colors—yellow, red, and blue—along with black and white to create a wide spectrum of hues and shades. Its primary focus is on teaching readers the delicate art of color theory and practical mixing techniques to achieve the desired colors with minimal waste. The book introduces the fundamental concepts of color, including the characteristics of primary, secondary, and tertiary colors, as well as their meanings and emotional associations. King elaborates on color mixing methodologies, offering systematic formulations for achieving specific shades and tints.
