What Challenges Do Artists Face When Applying Traditional Color Theory to Digital Platforms?

Artists often find that using color theory on digital platforms can be tricky. Here are some insights from my experience:

  • Color Models: Switching from RGB to CMYK can be confusing. RGB is great for screens, but when you print using CMYK, the colors might look different than you expected.

  • Color Calibration: Screens show colors in different ways. What looks good on one monitor might not look the same on another, which can be frustrating.

  • Layering and Transparency: In traditional art, mixing colors is straightforward, but it’s different in digital art. You need to learn how transparent layers blend colors in unique ways, which might change how you create your artwork.

In the end, combining old color theory with new technology requires some trial and error, along with a lot of patience!
