  1. Unit 1: Color Theory Using Color Pencil Techniques Beginning Art with Ms. Gay Fall 2016

  2. Unit 1 Introduction • Color Theory: Color Wheel Worksheet • Review color pencil techniques. • Varying pressure • Layering • Blending • Hatching/cross-hatching • Burnishing • Coloring practice page • Introduce unit project

  3. How to Color Properly • Do not use lines to color in sections…use scumbling!

  4. Color Pencil Techniques • Varying pressure • Done exactly as the name states: use less pressure for lighter color, more pressure for deeper color

  5. Color Pencil Techniques • Layering • Can layer the same color to create more depth, or layer multiple colors to create different colors/effects

  6. Color Pencil Techniques • Blending • Use a colorless blender pencil, a white colored pencil, rubbing alcohol, or baby oil to smooth rough lines and blend colors together

  7. Color Pencil Techniques • Hatching/Cross-hatching • Hatching: make lines going in the same direction (parallel) to indicate shadows/color change • Cross-hatching: make lines overlapping each other in different directions (perpendicular) to indicate shading or color change

  8. Color Pencil Techniques • Burnishing • Layer color(s), then apply heavy pressure to create a polished or glazed look • Can use a white color pencil (or another light color pencil) or object such as a spoon

  9. Some Awesome Color Pencil Artists • Heather Rooney: self-taught, portrait artist

  10. Some Awesome Color Pencil Artists • Morgan Davidson: graduate or Ringling College; nature/fashion emphasis

  11. Unit 1 Project • For this project, you will use all five color pencil techniques you learned in class to complete a coloring book page. • You may bring in your own coloring page (from a coloring book or printed from the internet) or you can have one of mine. • If there is one you want from one of my coloring books that hasn’t been copied yet, please ask me to get a copy for you—it takes 1-2 days to get copies made.

  12. Unit 1 Project Rubric • Use of all color pencil techniques, 1 point per technique = 0-5 points possible • Effort = 0-5 points possible, based on observed effort given during class time and as is evidenced by the final artwork • 5 = A • 4 = B • 3 = C • 2 = D • 0-1 = F • Project total is 10 points
