All for the love of colour :) - Playing with colour theory!

I have studied old colour theories and colour systems and selected some colour wheels and charts etc. to be remade. For this I use reference images I've found in vintage colour theory books etc., but the illustrations on my Society6 store aren't some low-resolution copies of them: I make my own high-resolution and high-quality versions from scratch using the vintage reference images only as - well - reference! :D

I often remake the images using the same faded and often altered tones as in original reference image. But I also study the original colour theory of each illustration, and based on this information I often make also another version, which is an interpretation of the same image using the shades that were most likely used in the original print before fading and altering of the colours. I also have played around with the elements creating inverted or re-arranged images.

The copyrights of these new remakes and interpretations belong to me. I share more information behind each colour theoretical illustration on my Instagram page @colorianet
