We artists work with color on a regular basis. It spins our collective fan. Color engages. Color energizes. Color soothes. Tyrone Geter once said that the more one learns about color, the more he/she realizes how much more there is to know. True. True. True. In a college sociology class, I read of a native tribe somewhere that had only 2 color words. Seeing simply. Dividing the spectrum into only 2 categories. I have thought often of this knowledge bite, and guess that the words had to do with color temperature. Maybe. I am a lover of pures paired with neutrals, those colors that can hardly be described with words, i.e. bluish-brownish-purpleish. Seeing colors is a subjective skill....who can really tell what another eye is seeing? Fascinating.
This color IQ test was forwarded by my son and is quite an endeavor. If you choose to attempt it, please do it when your time is open-ended, perhaps a half hour. When you click on the site, there is a block about color iq. Click on the part underneath that says..."learn more". Fun.
