the wheel of color

this is a color wheel. The purpose of a color wheel is to show the relationship between colors consisting primary, secondary, and tertiary shades.

Colors that are directly across from each other are called complimentary. For example, blue and orange are directly across from each other because when placed beside each other, they bring contrast and allow for the other to appear brighter. Complimentary colors can be very pleasing to the eye.

Note: I have red/orangish hair, and when I wear shades of blue, I receive the most compliments.

Colors directly beside each other are called analogous. Using colors side-by-side creates a sense of order and balance.

if you are having difficulty figuring out what colors mesh well together, start here. Simple is classy, every single piece you have on does not have to be a different color. Remember, the goal is to look trendy. Not look like a clown.

 You're doing great, keep up the color!
