This should be mailed (Rio Salado Drop Box or U.S. Post) to your instructor. Please review your for instructions on how to submit assignments. Check the class calendar for the due date. For this assignment, you will create a 12-color wheel. The color wheel is the basic tool that people use when working with color. The 12 hues are found in the spectrum of color. (Refer to page 34 of the textbook as well as the links located in “Summarizing Your Learning” in this lesson.) The color wheel is divided into three categories: primary hues, secondary hues (made by combining primary colors), and tertiary hues (made by combining secondary hues). The intent of this assignment is to develop an understanding of color by: Templates will be provided for you to use for this assignment by clicking on the appropriate links. When you access the links provided in this lesson under “Assessing Your Learning,” you will find three template links. These .pdf links may open at the wrong size on your computer. When the .pdf opens, you will find a box at the top that shows the percentage (size) of the image. Please change this percentage to 100% so the image will print properly. Click on this link and print out the template. You will use this template for the 12-step color wheel. Use this template to assist you in drawing the color wheel. Take the template and . Taking a #2 pencil, on the backside of the paper, making sure that you have covered the whole template. (If you have carbon paper, you can use it instead.) By covering the backside of the paper, you have created a type of carbon paper. Now, turn the paper over and lay it on top (with the carbon side down) of a piece of 8″ x 10” illustration board. Using masking tape, tape the corners of the paper down to t
he board. Using a pen or fine line marker (pressing down), trace around the template. In doing so, you will be drawing an exact duplicate on to the illustration board. When you are sure you have drawn over the template, remove the tape. You should see the whole design traced on to the illustration board. Now, click on this link and print out the template. You will use this template for drawing the secondary colors. Following the same directions, draw in this design as seen in the example. Next, open this link and print out the template. You will use this template for drawing the secondary colors. Following the same directions, draw in this design as seen in the example. You should now have an image on the illustration board that looks like this: Proceed and to paint in each of the individual color shapes. (Use the example image in this lesson as a reference.) Here is an easy way to remember how to mix colors: 1+1=2 and 1+2=3. (Primary + Primary = Secondary and Primary + Secondary = Tertiary.) First, paint the in the appropriate areas of the color wheel, using the picture above as a reference, and then proceed to paint in each color for the and by “mixing” primary colors to create the rest of the color wheel within the proper spaces. Mix the colors yourself so you can visually see the color transformation that occurs. Do not use secondary and tertiary colors out of a tube of paint. Be sure that you let the colors dry before moving on to a color “next to” one you have just painted. You can use your computer to type out (or neatly print) the names of the colors and then cut and paste them to the illustration board as shown in this example: Once you have completed the color wheel, do not forget to sign your work on the bottom right-hand corner.
