Dimensional Color

Yeah, I had to do that in basic design in the 60’s and it took a week of working with watercolor and tempera. It was very hard work. One slip and you had to start over.

Dimensional Color is at Amazon, and the other important book on composition called Elements of Dynamic Symmetry, has been in print for more than a century. It was written about the time that pointillism was invented.
