Color Wheel • The color wheel is a chart of colors the visible spectrum that is used to show how colors relate to each other. It is made up of three primary, three secondary, and six intermediate colors. • Painting a color wheel gives practice in recognizing color relationships, use of bushes and paint. • A color wheel is laid out so that any two primary colors are separated by secondary colors.
Motivation • Learning and using the color wheel is one of the foundations of making art. Through the discussion and creation of a color wheel the students will learn how to make colors and use them effectively in their art. Main
Primary Colors • The primary colors are Red, Blue, and Yellow. • They cannot be made by mixing any colors together. They are just by themselves. Main
Secondary Colors • The secondary colors are orange, green, and violet. • They are mixed bye blending two primary colors together. • Ex. Red and Yellow mixed together produce orange. Main
