I use my color wheel all the time. If you do want to use one or buy one, make sure you get an artist or interior design color wheel, and not a web design or RGB color wheel. An RGB color wheel is used for computer design - it is based on the light spectrum (rather than paint colors)... It is used for creating colors on VDUs, TVs and computer monitors. The light spectrum has red, green and blue as the primary colors (not red, yellow and blue - like we are interested in) - so avoid this, unless you want some very weird results. This is just like the one I use... (Just click on the image to find out more info, or buy) Or take a look on eBay (below) to buy your color wheel inexpensively, straight away. This is a live feed from eBay - click on a product to view further details or purchase the item. If any of these recommended eBay auction products, or the interior design color wheel from Amazon, interest you, please support my website by using the links on this page to buy.
