Definition: The Penguin Reference Dictionary defines color in part as the visual sensation caused by the perceived wavelength of light. This is a key point for the artist, for while objects posses color, our perception of it is altered by background, illumination, reflected light from other objects, and so on.
Also Known As: Hue, Chroma
Alternate Spellings: colour
Examples:
"I try to apply colors like words that shape poems, like notes that shape music." - Joan Miro
