A color space is divided into blocks in units of a block having a predetermined size, and transformed values of coordinates of vertexes of each block are calculated and recorded in a transformed value table. In cases where a block having a size different from the predetermined size is contained in the blocks, the block having the different size is replaced by a virtual block, which has a size identical with the predetermined size, and transformed values of coordinates of vertexes of the virtual block are calculated and recorded in a virtual transformed value table. In a factor table, vertexes, which have weight factors other than 0, and the weight factors of these vertexes are recorded with respect to each of positions in a block. A transformed value of a picture element value of each of picture elements, which constitute a color image, is calculated in accordance with the transformed values, which have been recorded in the transformed value table or the virtual transformed value table, and the vertexes and their weight factors recorded in the factor table.
