I have never thought that I will enjoy such book! I heard many times that people studying paiting and similar stuff always struggle with learning about theory of colors but this piece written by Johannes Itten makes it way easier. Book is divided into chapters and every of them is devoted to one subject, which render reading much more assimilable. Itten wrote it in such way that "The Elements of Color" will be also enjoyable for people who arent intrested in starting painting by themselves. Reader can start from random chapter and it will be still understandable and it is written in simple language.
I highly recommend this book not only for those who paint but also for people who love, just like me, to learn something new.
