A short-form series on historical and contemporary color wheels, and why they were built. Each episode discusses what problem a color wheel (or wheels) tried to solve, who made it, and what it gets right or wrong. We end up covering a lot of color theory ground in the process! New episodes every Wednesday.

The Modern Color Chart from 1931 is one of my all-time favorite color wheels. Why? Because hiding behind it is a bittersweet story. A story of ambitious, intellectual collaboration between two women -- a scientist and an artist -- to produce a cutting-edge color chart... that was immediately superseded. This is the fifth installment of "Color Wheel Wednesday," which is kind of an experiment to see if I can produce engaging content on a weekly basis. I have such an extensive collection of color wheels, charts, and books that I thought, why not feature one each week? #colortheory #colorwheel
