    The document is about the color wheel and color schemes. It begins by explaining the basic color wheel, which organizes primary colors (red, yellow, blue) and secondary colors created by combining primaries. It then discusses intermediate/tertiary colors created by mixing primaries and secondaries. Neutral colors like black, white and gray are also noted. The remainder describes different color schemes for art including monochromatic (one color), complementary (opposite colors), analogous (adjacent colors), warm (right side of wheel) and cool (left side). Examples illustrate each type of color scheme.

    The Color Wheel


    The color wheel fits together like a puzzle each color in a specific place. Being familiar
    with the
    color wheel not only
    helps
    you mix colors
    when painting, but in
    adding
    color to
    all your art
    creations.

    COLOR WHEEL

    A GUIDE TO STUDY
    HOW TO CHOOSE AND
    COMBINE COLORS

    PRIMARY COLORS
    Pure and basic
    Cannot be made from any
    other colors
    All other colors are made from
    these
    Equal distance from each
    other on color wheel

    Red
    Yellow
    Blue

    SECONDARY
    COLORS
    primary colors, a seconda

    Red + Yellow = Orange


    Yellow + Blue = Green
    Blue + Red = Purple

    INTERMEDIATE
    (TERTIARY) COLORS

    Intermediate, or Tertiary, colors are created by


    mixing a primary and a secondary.
    red-orange
    yellow-orange
    yellow-green

    blue-green
    blue-purple
    red-purple

    NEUTRAL COLORS
    The principles of color mixing let us describe a
    variety of colors, but there are still many colors
    to explore. The neutral colors contain equal
    parts of each of the three primary colors.
    Black, white, gray and sometimes brown are
    considered "neutral.

    Color Schemes
    Color Schemes are a systematic way of using
    the color wheel to put colors together in your
    art work, putting together the clothes you wear,
    deciding what colors to paint your room..

    monochromatic, complementary,
    analogous, warm and cool.

    MONOCHROMATIC
    Mono means one, chroma
    means color monochromatic
    color schemes have only one color
    and its values. The following slide
    shows a painting done in a
    monochromatic color scheme.

    This non-objective painting has a

    monochromati
    c color scheme
    - blue and the
    values (tints and
    shades) of blue.

    COMPLEMENTARY
    Complementary colors are
    opposite on the color wheel
    provided a high contrast if you
    want to be noticed wear
    complementary colors!

    This painting has


    complementary
    colors and their
    values - blues and
    oranges.

    ANALOGOUS
    The analogous color scheme
    is 3-5 colors adjacent
    to each other on the
    color wheel.
    This combination of
    colors provides very little
    contrast.

    Analogous colors
    are illustrated here:
    yellow, yellowgreen, green and
    blue-green.

    WARM
    Warm colors are found on the right side of the color
    wheel. They are colors found in fire and the sun.
    Warm colors make objects look closer in a painting
    or drawing.
    Appear hot like the sun or like fire
    Give feelings of gaiety, activity or cheerfulness
    Appear to advance-they make body look larger
    Can give a nervous impression if overdone

    This is an illustration
    of the use of warm
    colors - reds,
    oranges and yellows.

    COOL
    Cool colors are found on the left side of the
    color wheel. They are the colors found in snow
    and ice and tend to recede in a composition.
    Appear hot like the sun or like fire
    Give feelings of gaiety, activity or cheerfulness
    Appear to advance-they make body look larger
    Can give a nervous impression if overdone

    Note the cool


    color scheme in
    this painting
    (greens, purples
    and blues).
