Color DiscriminationColor discrimination is a perception - a construct ofthe mind. Color is a sensing and cognitive processbetween the eye and the brain.1/18/2018UC TUG17
Color Use: Establish figure & ground contrastCognitive ability to separate elements based on contrast – darkor light. When we look at something we separate out aforeground, or figure, and a background, or ground. Theforeground is usually the main subject on which we willsubsequently focus, whilst the background is generally ignored.1/18/2018UC TUG18

Color Mixing: Additive & Subtractive1/18/2018UC TUG21
Conventions – Qualitative & Quantitative Blue: cool phenomena and air Red and orange: extreme orwarm phenomena Brown: desiccated and earthenfeatures Green: money and growth(extension of flourishing) Color saturation or intensitygradations are used to denote data values.
