Color Theory for Artists: Everything you need to know about working with colour is a great go-to standard book on colour theory. It covers the usual attributes of colour with hue, value, saturation, temperature and its transparency or opacity. I particularly enjoyed the chapter on pigments and paints.
So many Banksy's have disappeared over the years. But maybe that was always the intention although I'm sure he didn't think at first that a lot of times they disappear because people see the dollar signs rather than the art. I'm sure he was aware that many would be painted over or some council worker would want them removed as they are grafitti. Banksy's Lost Works records these mostly ephemeral works. It's a very interesting read.
