Chromaticity: Think about a color’s “purity” when describing its “chromaticity” or “CHROMA”. This property of color tells us how pure a hue is. That means there is no white, black, or gray present in a color that has high chroma. These colors will appear very vivid and well, … pure. This concept is related to and often confused with saturation. You might also think of this describing how much other color has been added in to muddy the original.

Also you might want to describe the difference between translusive and reflective light and how it affects your thinking of a color wheel.

I have always used the word “tone” in place of “shade”, is it the same?

@ Lilian You're right, I could go on and on with color terms. I really try to keep these lists short (5-6 terms) for the sake of easy reading. If the general consensus wants me to add more I will be happy to. Thanks for reading! @Angie Thank you very much! I do plan to add these terms in a glossary on my site as the weeks go by. I don't want to draw attention away from the posts on here. Arron Lock´s lastest blog post..New Business Cards

This is turning out to be a very nice series. You should put up a permanent glossary of terms when the series is over. Angie Bowen´s lastest blog post..Freebies - Circular Fractal Photoshop Brush Pack 2
