      I don't claim to be master or anything, but my best suggestions about color is that you paint from observation.  Set up a still life and paint from that.  Keep drawing and painting from life...still life...plein air...figure...rinse and repeat.  That is the best way to learn.

      I'll also throw out there that one of the keys to a successful color piece is in the value...get your values right and it will vastly help your colors.  So, you might want to draw and paint a lot in gray scale to try and master values.

      You could also research the hell out of color theory and just study what artists through out history have discovered about color.  Study the old masters...also Sargent , Zorn...and the Brandywine guys....etc.

      Also, Here are a couple helpful tutorials you might want to check out:
