The document discusses the color wheel and different types of colors. It defines primary colors as red, blue and yellow, and secondary colors as those created by mixing two primary colors - violet, orange and green. Tertiary colors are created by mixing unequal parts of two primary colors. The color wheel is used to identify, mix and select primary, secondary and tertiary colors.

Lesson Objectives At the end of this lesson, students are able to: identify the primary colors. identify and mix the secondary colors. identify and mix the intermediate (tertiary) colors.
The Color Wheel Color wheel is a radial diagram of colors where primary colors (red, blue or yellow) are on one side and secondary (made by mixing two primary colors) colors appear on the other. A color wheel is used to identify, mix and select colors. Glossary of Art Terms, WorldImages http://www.worldimages.com/art_glossary.php
Primary Colors Primary colors are the three colors of red , blue and yellow from which all colors can be derived with the addition of black and white. Glossary of Art Terms, WorldImages http://www.worldimages.com/art_glossary.php
Secondary Colors Secondary colors are one of three colors created by mixing equal parts of two primary colors (red, blue and yellow); secondary colors include violet , orange , and green . Glossary of Art Terms, WorldImages http://www.worldimages.com/art_glossary.php Red + Blue = Violet Red + Yellow = Orange Blue + Yellow = Green
Tertiary Colors Tertiary colors are literally third color, colors that are created by mixing unequal amounts of two primary colors; for example, two parts of yellow and one part of blue would yield the tertiary color of a yellowish green. Glossary of Art Terms, WorldImages http://www.worldimages.com/art_glossary.php Red Orange Yellow Orange Yellow Green Red Violet Blue Violet Blue Green
Neutral Colors White, black, gray and colors containing a significant amount of gray.
Color Values Color values are the lights and darks of a color you create by using black and white with a color. This makes hundreds of more colors from the basic 12 colors of the wheel. white + color = tint color + black = shade
Tint & Shade Adding white to a color to lighten the value of that color. The more white that is added, the lighter the tint. Adding black (or other dark color) to a pure color to darken it. More black creates darker shades. TINT SHADE
