Color as a basic element of art
Color theory
Let’s recap what those terms mean.
Hue – refers to the color of the paint (red, yellow, blue, green).
Value – refers to the lightness or darkness of a hue. We can tint a hue by adding white, and thus making it lighter. Or we can shade a hue by adding black to make it darker.
Intensity – also known as chroma, is the level of intensity of the hue. A color is at full Intensity when it’s a pure color, straight from the tube. A color’s intensity can be changed by adding gray to it
