Finding Complements

A color’s complement is the one directly opposite on the color wheel. Another way to think of complements: the complement of any primary color is the color made from the two remaining primaries.

Color Temperature

Colors have a physical and a psychological relationship to temperature. Cool colors feel fresh, clean or wintry. Painters use them to paint shadows, seasons and certain moods. Painters use warm colors for movement, excitement, anger and warmth. The sayings “seeing red” and “feeling blue” demonstrate the correlation of emotion to color. The temperature of a painting’s color scheme carries emotion to the viewer.
