Last summer I met Sophia Color, a charismatic artist from Venezuela, dedicated to the the power of color. “Oh, your blog is missing color in your list of categories!”, she told me. Yes, because color is everywhere đ But it’s time for a post on color, with great research by didatticarte.
Sophia founded CromĂĄtica and whenever you need a specialist on color (she worked with universities & TV stations) for professional advise or guest teaching, contact her on fb
