Quiz: Color Theory and Digital Art Select one answer per question, then click Submit. 1) The color wheel organizes hues to understand: A) File formats B) Color relationships and harmony C) Pixel density D) Brush hardness The wheel maps relationships that guide palette building. 2) Primary, secondary, tertiary sequence (example): A) RGB; CMY; black B) Red, yellow, blue; green, orange, purple; red-orange, blue-green C) CMY; RGB; gray D) RGB; YCM; white Tertiaries are mixes of a primary with a neighboring secondary. 3) The RGB model is: A) Subtractive and for print B) Additive and for screens C) Neither additive nor subtractive D) Only for pigments RGB adds light; CMYK subtracts light with inks. 4) Complementary colors are: A) Adjacent B) Evenly spaced triads C) Opposite on the wheel D) Variations of one hue Opposites give high contrast and vibrancy. 5) A monochromatic scheme varies primarily in: A) Hue only B) Value and saturation of one hue C) Temperature only D) Texture Monochrome = one hue, varied by value/saturation. 6) Which attribute concerns lightness or darkness? A) Hue B) Value C) Saturation D) Chroma temperature Value controls tonal contrast and readability. 7) Warm colors generally: A) Recede and feel distant B) Advance and feel energetic/close C) Neutralize contrast D) Are unusable for focal points Warm hues tend to pop forward; cools recede. 8) For color consistency across screens, a key factor is: A) Thermalization B) Monitor calibration and color profiles C) Transmission losses D) Ferromagnetism Profiles like sRGB help align displays. 9) A practical step to check composition readability is to: A) Disable all layers B) Convert to grayscale to review values C) Use pure black shadows always D) Work only at max saturation Value contrast is critical; grayscale reveals it quickly. 10) Gradient maps and overlays are used to: A) Replace drawing skills B) Shift overall mood and color relationships efficiently C) Increase file size only D) Remove lighting decisions They remap tones to harmonized palettes fast.
