1. Creative Color Wheel
What is your favorite color? Why do you like it so much??
Mine is avocado green, because it looks good on me because of my hair color 

2. There are three properties to color.
Color Theory
Color Schemes
Every time you pick color to add to a work, you are creating a color scheme to add meaning to your art.
Primary
The colors you can’t make
Red, yellow and blue
Secondary
Colors you get when you mix two primaries
Orange, green, purple
Intermediate
Colors that are a mix between a primary and a secondary
Red-orange, blue-violet, yellow-green, etc
Color Wheel
Color is the element of art that happens when light is reflected back to the eye.
There are three properties to color.
Hue
which simply means the name we give to a color (red, yellow, blue, green, etc.).
Intensity
refers to the vividness of the color.
Value
how light or dark it is.
shades are created by adding black to a color,
tints are created by adding white to a color.
Color is often shown in a wheel in order to show the relationships between the colors.
The order of the color wheel never changes
The color wheel goes from Red to Violet, or speaking in scientific terms, from color with a shorter wavelength (red) to the longer wavelength (purple)

3. Edible Color Wheel Get in teams of 3-4

5. There are three properties to color.
Color Theory
Color Schemes
Every time you pick color to add to a work, you are creating a color scheme to add meaning to your art.
Primary
The colors you can’t make, bright and bold. Simple.
Secondary
Colors you get when you mix two primaries. Still bright and bold, but a little less than using only primaries.
Intermediate
Colors that are a mix between a primary and a secondary. More muted.
Complementary
Colors across from each other on the color wheel
When they are beside each other they seem really bright. High contrast! Kind of hurts your eyes
Analogous
Neighbors on the color wheel
Calming for our eyes. Our brains like similar things
Temperature of the color
Makes you think of warm or cool things
Warm (Red, orange, yellow)
Cool (Blue, purple, green)
Color Mood
How a color makes you feel when you look at it
Red – Angry Blue – calm Green – healthy
Meaning changes based on when/where you are in the world!

8. Today… Choose a medium to experiment with first
Go to the “station” for that medium
Glue/Tape/Staple (etc) the practice sheet in your sketchbook
Complete the practice sheet
Draw a SIMPLE picture on the opposite page in your sketchbook
Fill it in using the techniques you used on the worksheet
About ½ through class, we will switch to go to the other station
If you have down time before we switch, think about the project you want to do for your final. Remember you must include a color wheel, it must be creative and it must create a mood or an atmosphere. Other than that you have free reign on your idea. Sketch due Monday!
