Synopsis

Drawing on fine art and design knowledge, Lee Chappell Monroe breaks down core colour theory in a clear, usable way. The book explains colour fundamentals, including how saturation shifts as white, black, or grey is introduced, and what contributes to a successful palette.

Hands-on exercises and practical, beginner-friendly projects help you test ideas in your own medium, while exploring how different combinations can influence the mood of a finished piece. Suitable for crafters and artists at any skill level, with applications across fabrics, paint, embroidery, printmaking, coloured pencils, and more.
