concept art and color

[fletchgirl]

how much does color have to do with concept art?
I am asking because SOMEONE is to embarrassed to ask this question himself. :rolleyes: anyway, he's colorblind and mostly works in black and white. maybe i should post this in the portfolio help section.... oh well. So, his best work, because he's most sure with it, is monochromatic. could you still get a job doing concept art without color? Is that too much of a limitation? what do you think? are any of you colorblind?

(to give you an idea, we were talking today and he thought the Lakers colors are yellow and blue...) :eek: i'm gonna get killed for saying that. :cool:

Hmmm...i don't know who it was, but there is a member here who's color blind too...he once told this in a post...nothing embarassing about this...

I'm colorblind, (the correct term is "Color Deficient" :rolleyes: haha )
My childhood was filled with pictures drawn of brown grass and purple skies.:) I was about to start a thread asking the same question. So, I am interested if anyone else is colorblind, because I want to be a concept artist.

i think black and white is good, I don't see anything wrong with it. all my art is in b&w and everyone likes it.

I would much rather see brown grass and purple skies anyway.
