This course is about color, only color and it's the best! Mark Gatter shows exactly how to work with color for web and print. The colorscheme website he points to were unknown to me and are great stuff! Thanks!

I've been a hobbyist "designer" for many years but I never bothered to learn any foundational color theory. This tutorial filled in a couple gaps and I picked up a few pointers that will definitely stick with me. I really enjoyed Mark's presentation style as well.

Amazing course! If you've never had schooling in graphic design, like me, this course will be a fantastic adventure, albeit too short. I want more!!!

I knew a lot of the color theory already, but it was still a great refresh. The tools presented are all new to me and I already don't know how I lived without them.
