Warm Colors: Colors such as red, yellow, and orange. These
colors evoke warmth because they remind us of things like the sun
or fire.
Cool Colors: Colors like blue, green, and purple (violet).
These colors evoke a cool feeling because they remind us of things
like water or grass.
Neutral Colors: Gray, Brown. These aren't on most color wheels,
but they're considered neutral because they don't contrast with much
of anything. They're dull and uneventful.
Value: Usually refers to the amount of black in a color. The
more black a color has, the darker its value.
Brightness: Refers to the amount of white in a color. The more
white a color has, the brighter it is.
Saturation: Refers to the amount of a color used. When a color
is at full saturation, it is extremely vibrant. When a color is "desaturated,"
a large amount of color has been removed. Desaturated colors tend
to be close to being neutral because there is so much gray in them.
