Basic Color Schemes
No color stands alone. In fact, the
effect of a color is determined by many
factors: the light reflected from it, the
colors that surround it, or the perspective
of the person looking at the color.
There are ten basic color schemes.
They are called achromatic, analogous,
clash, complement, monochromatic,
neutral, and split complement, as well as
primary, secondary, and tertiary schemes.
ACHROMATIC SCHEME
Without color, uses only
black, white, and grays.
ANALOGOUS SCHEME
Uses any three consecutive
hues or any of their tints and
shades on the color wheel.
