Dwelling in the famed "BIG THICKET" or Texas. This novel will take one literally back to a time in the 1960's 1970's; It's drastically differed ways of thinking, and ways of life. Where the great American landscapes were still fiercely ever in tact. It's values, and ways of conversing with all that is inside. It's ways of being. A literally terrifying novel where one is chased forever in this thick tangle of jungle-like Texas land. A blood encrusted warrior who does the unspeakable.

Giving an overview of the history of color theory from ancient and classical cultures to contemporary contexts, this book explores important critical principles and provides practical guidance on the use of color in art and design. Going beyond a simple recitation of what has historically been said about color, artist and educator Aaron Fine provides an intellectual history, critiquing prevailing Western ideas on the subject and challenging assumptions. He analyses colonialist and gendered attitudes, materialist and romanticist perspectives, spiritualist approaches to color, color in the age of reproduction, and modernist and post-modernist color strategies. Highlighted throughout are examples of the ways in which attitudes towards color have been impacted by the legacy of colonialism and are tied up with race, gender, and class. Topics covered include color models, wheels and charts, color interaction and theories of perception, with over 150 images throughout. By placing under-examined tenets of color theory such as the color wheel and color primaries within the Western industrial context that generated them, Fine helps you to connect color choices to color meanings and apply theory to practice.
