Color and Light - Paint and Pigments Chapter 5 pgs 96-99, 104-107

Notes on Color Stuff - important notes on where colors lie on the color wheel.
Keep in mind for future oil paintings and obtaining good color theory. 
"The chart above shows where many familiar pigments would appear. Earth colors, since they’re low in chroma, appear close to the center in the red and yellow sectors, and black and white sit together at the center. 

Since maximum known chroma varies from one color to another, even the some of the strongest tube colors often fall short of the perimeter. 

This chart doesn’t include every pigment. But even if it did, there would gaps where pigments are unavailable."

This chart puts the pigments used in the paints in the correct chart in the colour wheel. Great for people like me who uses additive light with CG work a lot and then changing to subtractive when painting by hand. This gives me an idea of the names of paints to use for the pixels in the colour wheel. Picture taken from James Gurney. #colour #colour wheel #colour scheme- Also see the Yurmby wheel
