Abstract
A natural language based color naming system for color raster graphics, the Artist's Color Naming System (ACNS), is introduced. ACNS is an English-based nomenclature which is a high-level alternative to the numeric HSV (Hue-Saturation-Value) single-hexcone color model. ACNS suggests a grammar, based upon psychological, linguistic and artistic considerations, for constructing several hundred color designations from a small number of English terms. The ACNS twenty-four sided pyramid model and its lexicon are based upon the CNS (Color Naming System) double pyramid model and lexicon. An algorithm and a reverse algorithm for the transformation of the ACNS color space into the RGB (Red-Green-Blue) colorcube, are presented.
