Tertiary Colors
Post-Impressionism is an art movement that emerged in the late 19th century as a reaction against Impressionism, which emphasized capturing the fleeting effects of light and color in the natural world. Post-Impressionists sought to express their emotions and personal experiences through bold colors, expressive brushstrokes, and unnatural forms. They explored new ways of using color, such as the use of complementary colors to create vibrancy and intensity, and the concept of "simultaneous contrast," where two colors next to each other enhance each other's perceived brightness. Fauvist Art is a subcategory of Post-Impressionism that emerged in the early 20th century, characterized by its use of intense, non-naturalistic color and simplified forms. Overall, Post-Impressionism is a movement that emphasizes subjective interpretation over objective reality, and seeks to express the inner world of the artist through vivid colors and bold brushstrokes.
