Color Wheel Theory Makes Your Color Mixing Even Prettier!!

 (>) Remember color goes in a circular wheel , so there is not a beginning color. However, Red is next to Orange, Orange is next to Yellow, Yellow is next Green, Green is next to Blue, Blue is next to Purple, and Purple is next to Red.  So Any Color next to each other will mix pretty!   >)  There are 3 special colors that are one of a kind (nothing you mix can make them). They are yellow, red, and blue. These are called Primary Colors.  >) When you mix 2 primary colors together they will make a Secondary Color, so you know these will mix pretty! So 1 + 1 = 2.  Red + Yellow = Orange, Red + Blue = Purple,  and Blue + Yellow = Green.   >) Black and White (mixed make gray) are not on the color wheel, they are Values of light to dark. So you can mix with any color. Tints are when white is mixed with a color. Example: Mix red with white and it makes pink. Mix blue with white and it makes sky blue. Shades are when black is mixed with a color. Example: Mix blue with black and it makes navy. Mix blue with red and it makes maroon.  )> Brown is what happens when you mix opposite colors on the color wheel - don't mix opposite colors on color wheel they make mud (Use a pretty brown instead, may put other colors in that brown to mix pretty). Note: Brown and white make tan.  Colors opposite on color wheel Look Great Next to other, but don't mix! In fact they are the greatest contrast and called Complimentary Colors. They are: red is opposite green, blue is opposite orange, and yellow is opposite purple. 

Due to the Corona Virus / A Fun Creativity Project that may be done at home

My Recommended Art Project for Regular Education of All Ages and Special Education / Special Needs;  Two Week Project.   Part 1: March 16 - 20,  and Part 2: March 23 - 27 .    1). Name on back of art / Grade. Great for all ages - elementary through high school (Fun for adults too)! May use on typing paper, school paper, anything you have at home. May use any materials you have at home (crayons, colored pencils, ink pens...). This project may be easier if you begin with regular pencil  with eraser, then switch to colored materials.  2) This is an adaption of a psychological creativity test - The Torrance Test of Creativity (In their test it would be timed, and they are looking for all the creative details).  No timing in our project! Have fun with it try to make each circle drawing as different as you can from other circles on your page. One rule: student may draw as they like inside the circle, but any lines added outside the circle need to touch that circle. 3) Trace around an object the size of a quarter or a little larger 12 times on a paper (space circles out - so you will see 12 circles on front of your paper.  If you are a special needs student you may make less circles and make them bigger  - or just one large circle, tracing around a cereal bowl (caregiver can ask them what things are made out of the circle shape / or have them practice making a happy face in the large circle (ask them where are your eyes to self then to paper, etc.).  4) Regular Ed. think what is circle shaped? Examples: Clock, teapot (add spout and handle - extra detail creativing would be like a drop of tea coming out, elephant head (add ears ouside, truck coming out), inner part of a flower (added creativity may be a bee on the flower), unicycle wheel with rider on top,...  5) Work will not be turned in or graded, however this will be both fun and creative. As an art teacher I recommend: 1st week at home in March: Trace circles on paper, with regular pencil do creativity on each circle. 2nd week at home in March: Think extra details, color in neatly with crayons, colored pencils or whatever you have. Be neat!  Think color mixing - color wheel. See additional color blurg on this!
