		A client’s response to colour is the gateway through which she can tune in to strengths/weaknesses, pinpoint problem areas and counsel clients, incorporating various therapies for healing.
		Through his in-depth studies of colours’ effect on the human organism, he discovered that colours affect the entire organism, that each colour has a role to play, and that a balance of colour is necessary for good health.
		Colour therapy should be considered a complimentary treatment; it is not meant to replace conventional treatments and medications, but to compliment them.

	Colour
		Colour is simply light of different wavelengths and frequencies and light is just one form of energy made up from photons.
		As the light passes through the prism, it is split into the seven visible colours of the spectrum by refraction.
		The higher the frequency, of the colour, the closer together the waves of energy are.

	Colour Affects Home
		Colour Affects is the only company in the world that combines scientific principles with artistic vision to bring the most effective use of colour to any application - based not only on the cosmetic effect of appearance, but also the profound psychological effect of colour on human response and behaviour.
		Colour psychology can be applied to branding, packaging, web design, interiors, product design and uniforms, as well as personal application to your home and wardrobe.
		Working with the Colour and Imaging Institute, at the University of Derby in England, Angela Wright, founder of Colour Affects, has produced a prototype software system, called Ultracolour, to enable designers - and anyone using colour - to apply the latest discoveries about both colour psychology and colour harmony for themselves.

	Colour of Stars
		Colour index or CI is simply a number equal to the difference between the blue, B and visual, V magnitudes of a star.
		The calibration of the colour index scale means that a star of spectral class A0 and luminosity class V (ie a main sequence star) has a colour index of 0.0.
		Luminosity class does affect the colour index for a star so that a main sequence (V) star and a supergiant (Ia) of the same spectral class may not have have quite the same CI but this correction factor is beyond the scope of the syllabus.

	Colour Mixing Tutorial - Watercolours and Pastels by Peter Saw
		Some colours however are not truly transparent due to the nature of the substances used in their manufacture.
		Such colours are termed 'opaque' though the term is used relatively as watercolours are used as a thin film of paint which will generally appear transparent.
		The colour patches have been reproduced from scans of actual mixes but they should be used only as a guide due to the limitations of equipment used to copy the colours and the differences in monitor colour reproduction.

	Colour properties
		Traditionally, for convenience, these colours are arranged in a circle of six colours (Indigo is not used), to form a colour circle or 'Colour Wheel'.
		This only works if you use a paint colour that 'leans' towards the colour being made, i.e., to make violet you would need to use a red that is 'inclined' towards violet, and a blue that is 'inclined' towards violet.
		Understanding the principals and properties of colour, helps us to decide what colour is to be used to express our feelings for the subject we are painting.

		Colour manipulation can be tremendously confusing if you don't have a background in graphic arts or computing.
		A better way to get the colour names, as well as to see what the colours look like, is to fire up a colour chooser (like xcolorsel) that both lists the colour names and shows a swatch of the colour as well.
		If you wish the numbers to be colourized as well, you must explicitly tell mom that you wish all of the head(s), subhead(s) or parahead(s), including the numbers, colourized by invoking the appropriate control macro.

		Colours can contrast in hue, value and saturation, but there are many different types of contrasts that have been defined by colour theorists throughout the years.

	Colour Psychology - How does it Work?
		However, the truth is that colour is light - the source of life itself; there is nowhere that colour does not exist and our instinctive, unconscious response to it is a vital element in our survival.
		It is not normally part of a psychologist's remit to study the finer points of colour harmony so colours are defined as, for example, "blue and orange" or "red and green" without much consideration of the subtleties of shade and tone.
		There are many examples of colour symbolism: purple is associated with royalty for the simple reason that, until relatively recently, it was an extremely expensive dye and only royalty could afford it; red is the colour of blood and has associations with war.

	Juicy Studio: Colour Contrast Analyser Firefox Extension
		The Colour Contrast Analyser Firefox extension lists colour combinations used in the document in a table that summarises the foreground colour, background colour, luminosity contrast ratio, and the colour difference and brightness difference used in the algorithm suggested in the 26th of April 2000 working draft for Accessibility Evaluation and Repair Tools (AERT).
		When an element's foreground and background colour combination fail either the luminosity contrast ratio or the colour contrast algorithm suggested by AERT, the whole row is coloured yellow.
		It's important to remember that both the luminosity contrast ratio or the colour combination algorithm suggested by AERT have never been recommendations; they're suggestions by two WAI working groups to help determine whether or not the contrast between two colours can be read by people with colour blindness or other visual impairments.

	mezzoblue § Colour Schemes
		A ‘technical’ method of colour-selection involves choosing one or two dominant colours from the colour wheel, to be used with a small set of complementary colours.
		Basic colour theory concepts like split complementary and triadic colour schemes offer a wide range of variation, particularly when you start throwing in shades, tints, and saturation adjustments.
		The only flaw is that you’re limited to the dominant colours; sometimes the colours pulled out of a photo come from just a few pixels of accent that would probably blur into something else.

		Differences in eye colour are largely down to "single nucleotide polymorphisms" (SNPs - pronounced "snips"); variations in the sequence of letters that make up a single strand of human DNA.
		In short, these combinations strongly influence the colour of a person's eyes, but they are not the final word.
		The study was a collaboration between researchers at the Queensland Institute of Medical Research and the University of Queensland, both in Brisbane.
