1. Begin on page 256 and define each term. Color wheel Primary colors Secondary colors Tertiary/intermediate colors Hue Value Shade Tint Intensity Neutral colors Warm colors Cool colors

2. The Element of Color Objective 3.02: Implement color terminology and the components of the color wheel.

3. The color wheel is a helpful tool for visualizing how different colors are related to each other.

4. Primary colors - are the only 3 simple colors…all colors can be made by mixing primary colors!

5. Secondary colors - are made by mixing 2 primary colors. (green, violet, orange)

6. Tertiary Colors (also called intermediate colors) – are made by mixing a primary and a secondary color that are beside each other. (ex. blue-green)

7. When naming tertiary colors the name of the primary color goes first. Example: yellow-orange not orange-yellow

8. The name of a color is its hue. Hue is what makes each color unique.

9. The lightness or darkness of a hue is its value. Adding white or black to a hue will change its value.

10. A shade is created by adding black to a hue. A tint is created by adding white to a hue. These are sometimes called “pastels”. Value

11. Intensity is the hue’s brightness or dullness. The intensity of a hue can be changed by adding its complement (the color directly opposite it) on the color wheel.

12. Black, white, and gray are called neutral colors. Neutrals blend well with other colors. Black is the combination of all pigments. White is the absence of all pigments.

13. Brown and its tints and shades are also considered neutrals Combining equal amounts of complementary colors forms a brown color.

14. Although neutral colors are not found on most color wheels, they are classified as colors when discussing design.

15. Colors have a “temperature” and are considered either warm or cool.

16. Warm Colors Reds, yellows, and oranges Warm colors advance and make walls appear closer to you than they really are Warm colors make a space appear smaller.

17. Cool Colors Blues, violets, and greens Cool colors recede and make walls seem farther away than they really are Cool colors make a space appear larger.

18. Color Your Name Draw your name or initials in bubble letters on white cardstock. Choose a different hue for each letter. Color each letter your chosen hue gradually going from a tint to a shade.
