Color tut?

[honey*bee]

Does anyone know of a tut or compilation of color mixtures, colors that react to different things( ie. glass, silver, reduction), color combinations etc.? It could be for purchased even.

Sarah Hornick has a color tut. http://blog.glassbysarah.com/2008/12/10/sarahs-12-favorite-color-schemes--and-why-they-work.aspx

Kitty at Listen up has several great pages of references.

Bullseye has a list of color tips

I know there are more, but this is what I can link of at this time.

you might find the colour combos from these old bead challeges useful: http://www.gemfox.com/corinabeads/beadmakerchallenge.html

here's a generic colour theory tut: http://www.colormatters.com/colortheory.html

i find browsing the gallery the best source for colours & reactions. some threads are even dedicated to one colour alone

Thanks for all the links! I do searches but without knowing what terms to search for it sometimes get difficult to find what I'm looking for.

I have this one and am hoping to receive my package of DH rod soon so I can play more.

It's funny... I took color theory in college but some how I am still intimidated:hide:.

Thanks for all the info. I purchased sarah's color tut. Pretty neat stuff. As I was reading through it I kept having flashbacks of homework assignments! I think I need to get my old textbooks out and study up. I can't wait for that reactions book. That is the biggest thing with lampwork that I want to explore, reactions of different glass and also "this color over this color makes this color" kind of stuff. Thanks everyone, I'm gonna compile all this and tape it to my walls!!

Kandice - I remember reading, on your site I think, your take on EDP. I loved that you called it SDP sweet dreamy purple. Where is that page? I can't find it . . .
TIA.
