Color Science for Photographers and Artists

Color isn't subjective—it follows principles that shape how viewers feel and where they look. This course moves beyond personal taste into color theory: primary and secondary harmonies, complementary relationships, temperature (measured in kelvins), and the contrast types that create visual depth.

You'll learn the practical applications: how saturation contrast adds punch, how value contrast creates dimension, how warm and cool tones guide emotional response. A complete color-grading exercise walks through enhancing portraits end-to-end. Whether you shoot photography or create digital art, understanding color as a design tool (not accident) elevates every image. The course builds intuition alongside guidelines, so you make confident, conscious choices.
