Johannes Itten



Johannes Itten - Die Begegnung - 1916

We have been studying Johannes Itten's color system. Above is dealing with value with neutrals on the vertical axle. While the horizontal axle shows the value of the red hue.
Above the horizontal axle is a 10 hue color wheel. These swatches are the basis of what we have been making in class. Creating these swatches is very time consuming and an eyeopener to Munsell's world of color.

  3. Good fast fix. Maybe credit your sources when you download, labeling the image with artist name.

  4. Gradation areas in this Itten image are similar to Munsell's color scores.
