Other Color Schemes;
Primary
The simplest or most basic color schemes. The pure hues of red yellow and blue. They are often used for children’s play equipment and surrounding environments.
Neutral
Hues that have been neutralized by adding their compliments. The addition of black and white expands the neutral palette.
Clash
Select one color, then use one color from either side of its complementary. This provides a clash color scheme that has an assertive aggressive effect.
Remember that the color wheel is just a tool. It is a very useful tool and a good way to learn, but as with any artistic professional, experimentation and being innovative can be very rewarding. By understanding what you achieve with the color combinations from the color wheel, you can push the boundaries to create something quite original and daring.
