Color Theory

Quality score: 70/100 · Category: Science & Research · Sub-category: physics

Color theory principles for art education. Covers the three color properties (hue, saturation, value), color mixing systems (subtractive and additive), color relationships (complementary, analogous, triadic, split-complementary), color temperature, simultaneous contrast and the relativity of color perception, and practical palette construction. Use when analyzing color in artworks, planning color schemes, understanding optical phenomena in painting, or investigating Albers's Interaction of Color experiments.

What this skill does

Color Theory is a production-ready Claude Code skill (quality score 70/100) in the physics sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/color-theory/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when analyzing color in artworks, planning color schemes, understanding optical phenomena in painting, or investigating Albers's Interaction of Color experiments.
