Chapter I Monochromatic color Harmony

All color harmony rules involve the use of the standard color wheel. The most important thing to remember about the color wheel is that each color family contains all of the tints, tones and shades of that color family not just the brightest color from that family.

Monochromatic color schemes utilize one color family and can use all of its tints, tones and shades. It can also include black and white as they are totally neutral. Monochromatic colors are the simplest to achieve. As long as you stay near one color family and do not deviate in hue you can complete a beautiful color scheme.
