Color Wheel, lesson One

 First Lesson with Sarah, Exploring the color wheel!










Lesson One:
Learning the Color Wheel!
Primary - color from which all colors can be used to mix. ex) Red, Yellow, and Blue.
Secondary - color resulting from the mixing of two primary colors. ex) Green, Orange, Violet.
Tertiary - colors resulting from mixing equal parts of a primary and a secondary color.  ex.) Red-violet, Violet-red, Red-orange, Orange-red, Blue-violet, Violet-blue, Green-yellow, Yellow-Green.
Complimentary Colors - colors opposite of each other on the color wheel. ex.) green and red, yellow and violet, blue and orange. 
Art History Lesson One:
Piet Mondrian was born in 1872 in the Netherlands. He is most famous for using the primary colors to make pictures with. 
He started the De Stjil art movement which uses geometric shapes, straight lines, and primary colors to make a picture!
Sketchbook Assignments:
1.) Using markers, make a picture of your favorite animal using the primary colors. Try to take up the whole page, add scenery if you like, but only use the primary colors!
2.) color the objects I have drawn for you with paint by mixing the secondary colors!
3.) Using what ever you want (paint, markers, crayons, map pencils etc) create a picture of what ever you want! Use the whole page, and LOTS of color!! 
4.) Go outside and draw a picture of the scenery in front of you. (You can use anything you like, paint, crayons, markers, etc) use lots of colors.
