Munsell Color Theory in Personal Color Harmony


Ever wonder why some colors look better on you than others? A personal color analysis is done to determine the best version of a color in each color family that flatter a person's natural coloring and to provide the tools to make choices when selecting clothing, accessories, hair color, cosmetics, and more.

Join Personal Color expert, Kerry Jones founder of Indigo Tones in understanding how Albert Munsell’s 3-Dimensional Color Theory combined with the Seasonal Color Theory of the Impressionist painters is used to systematically organize the colors found in nature, including personal coloring into seasonal tone harmonies.

All colors in nature can be combined into perfect color harmony based on their HUE, VALUE and CHROMA levels as outlined in Munsell's color theory. Kerry will illustrate how the color ordering that he studied along with the discoveries of other artists/scientists is utilized in the system she uses in personal color analysis. The varying degrees of hue, value and chroma in colors worn will have different effects on a person. When those 3 dimensions are perfectly balanced, the harmonious results are exceptionally flattering, even magical, like a masterpiece painting or a classical symphony.

Kerry was certified in Personal Color Harmony by Munsell Color Scientist Kathryn Kalisz in 2005 and has analyzed thousands of clients using 12 seasonal tone personal color theories. In the last two decades, she has analyzed thousands of clients, created a collection of personal color swatch books, developed her own line of cosmetics and is currently training other color consultants in 12 season personal color analysis based on Munsell's theories.
