Color

Hi All,

Color. It is all around us. And to think that I just noticed it...

I'll try not to make today's blog entry silly or confusing or annoying or campy.

I'm writing this from the reference desk and I just noticed all the various colors in the library. Click here for a color palette of well, colors. Take note - these sites are very, very colorful!

Wondering about complimentary colors or shades? Dominant colors and saturation and intensity. Click here for another link to many sites that talk about this. Also, you might want to visit this site to basic color theory - neat stuff - it'll brighten your day.

Click here for a website that will help you with your color mixing recipes. This is neat stuff if you like to make your paint or are an artist!

Well, now that we are on the topic of color, click here for a link to Michael's - the art store. Click here for a link to ACMoore - the art and craft store. Finally, click here for a link to Jo-Ann's - the fabric and craft store....

Want to see all the colors that Crayola makes and has made in the past? Click here for that colorful little nugget of information from Wikipedia. Here is a neat link to the Crayola website - you can search for colors on the site.

Finally, click here for a simple color wheel.

One last thing - sorry about not posting a single entry last week. It has been hectic around the library since we reopened on January 18th! I'll try to post on a more consistent Monday-Wednesday-Friday basis...

Regards,
Stu
