about
coloraday©2008 is an ongoing blog launched on April 28, 2008. My primary goal for this image based reference website is to have daily postings of both traditional information and personal observations (mine and others) on a comprehensive range of color concept and theory topics. I also wish to inspire all who view the site with the same excitement and passion that I have for this subject. I welcome postings, observations and articles by students, colleagues and all color enthusiasts.*

*Please submit your color sightings: observations, leads, articles and images to help build the “color-a-day” site into a full-color, spectrum of information. All posted entry contributions will be given full citation credits.
