Color Theory


Theory Of Colors:

             
                                      Color theory encompasses a multitude of definitions, concepts and design applications - enough to fill several encyclopedias. However, there are three basic categories of color theory that are logical and useful. The color wheel, color harmony, and the context of how colors are used.  Color theories create a logical structure for color.

                   The Color Wheel:
            Color circle, based on red, yellow and blue, is traditional in the field of art. Sir Isaac Newton developed the first circular diagram of colors in 1666.
There are also definitions (or categories) of colors based on the color wheel. We begin with a 3-part color 
wheel.

Primary Colors: Red, yellow and blue
In traditional color theory , primary colors are the 3 pigment colors that can not be mixed or formed by any combination of other colors.
Secondary Colors: Green, orange and purple
These are the colors formed by mixing the primary colors.

                           Tertiary Colors: Yellow-orange, red-orange, red-purple, blue-purple, blue-green & yellow-green
These are the colors formed by mixing a primary and a secondary color.
Color Harmony:

                                                                        Harmony can be defined as a pleasing arrangement of parts, whether it be music, poetry, color, or even an ice cream sundae. The visual task requires that we present a logical structure. Color harmony delivers visual interest and a sense of order. 
Some Formulas for Color Harmony:
                                                                         There are many theories for harmony
1.A color scheme based on analogous colors:



2.A color scheme based on complementary colors:

Mother is one who will walk the extra mile just to see her children smile. She will work her fingers to the bone to make a house into home. Mother loves right from the start. She holds her baby close to her heart. She is one who can be strong when you need someone lean on. The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness. Mother is someone close enough to always understand, to encourage and inspire. Mother is a best friend forever, a shoulder to cry on and secrets to share, warm heart and hand, which really care. The future destiny of a child is always the work of the Mother.

COLOURFUL TRUCKS



It is a well known fact the land of Pakistan flourishes with various forms of arts and crafts and out of many, one wonderful kind is the truck art. So today my post is about the colourful truck or the truck art.In Pakistan the Drivers of the truck love to paint their trucks and invest money to decorate and paint in order to distinguish their artwork. Not only trucks but you will also find customized buses with paintings. Such vehicles are considered to be moving art . Due to unique style of decoration, trucks of Pakistan look different from other trucks decorating styles. In fact truck owners feel very proud if their trucks are in a distinctive style from others. Overall the look of a truck that is ready after décor is very colourful.




Now I talk about the elements and trends that are used in this kind of art are foliage prints, floral motifs, birds, animals, landscapes and portraits of famous people in Pakistan. Along with this some other things are the use of ornaments such as chains that have bells attached so that they ring and produce sound whenever the truck is moving. Mirror work is also done to give it a shiny appearance. Moreover some people also ask the decorators to write verses on the back of the trucks along with the art that are sometimes serious and wise and sometimes really funny and interesting to read for example,
Dehkh magr pyar sy
Maa ki doua janat ki hawa
Pappu yr tang na kr
Palat k dekh ly zalim
Sanam bewafa



So its all about the colour of truck or truck decoration .
