Chapter 13
Tens Ways to Kickstart Your Color Creativity
IN THIS CHAPTER
Understanding your color tastes and preferences
Exploring new ideas to explore color creatively
Discovering new color concepts
Observing colors in the world
The exercises in this chapter are spin-offs from color concepts described throughout the book. Each exercise is an independent exploration, so do as many (or as few) as you like, in any order. No matter what your medium, the exercises are ways for you to reframe your thinking about color, shake up your process, get some new inspiration — and kickstart your color creativity!
These exercises are not instructions for finished projects. Rather, they're ideas that you can develop however you like. Whether you're teaching a class on color theory and looking for ways to spark your students' imaginations or working on your own, these open-ended exercises can help.
Everyone’s color sensibility is different. The exercises are meant to reveal your color preferences and tastes, build color observation skills, and simply enjoy the experience of working with color.
