A Dictionary of Color Combinations
£17.10
Sanzo Wada (1883-1967) was an artist, teacher, costume and kimono designer during a turbulent time in avant-garde Japanese art and cinema. Wada was ahead of his time in developing traditional and Western influenced colour combinations, helping to lay the foundations for contemporary colour research. Based on his original 6-volume work from the 1930s, this book offers 348 color combinations, as attractive and sensuous as the books own design.

For a crafter this little dictionary of colour combinations is invaluable. Saw it on YouTube and so glad I got it.

If I could be anyone anywhere in the history of the world I’d be a bronze age fisherman on the island Orkney, because the semi-tropical climate of the time and the abundance of the unspoilt environment meant the fish jumped into your hands in an eden of ease and beauty and in the jewel sparkling sea. But close second I would be a fabric dyer in Heian period Japan because the beauty of the garments surpassing anything known before or since. They could literally see colours that don’t exist to us anymore. Our eyes are dead.
