Lesson Objectives

Four Part Composition Project

You will be creating a four part composition. You will make a design that you repeat in four squares. You will then paint each square using the following color combinations:

1. Primary2. Secondary3. Warm, Cool or

Analogous4. Monochromatic

Primary COLORSThe three primary

colors are:

RedBlue YellowThese are primary because they cannot be made from any other colors. They are the colors from which all other colors are mixed.

Secondary COLORSA secondary color is made by mixing two primary colors.

The secondary colors are:Green (yellow + blue)

Warm COLORSWarm Colors are colors that suggest warmness and appear to advance (red, yellow, orange).

Warm Colors

Cool COLORSCool Colors are colors that suggest coolness and appear to recede (blue, green, violet).

Cool Colors

Analogous COLORSAnalogous Colors are three consecutive colors on the color wheel.

Example:Red-OrangeOrange-Yellow-Orange

Example:RedRed-VioletViolet

Intensity of COLOR The intensity of color is the brightness or dullness of a color.

You can change the intensity of a color by changing it’s value. Value is the lightness or darkness of a color.

Tints are light values of a color. One usually makes tints by mixing a color with different amounts of white.

Shades are dark values  of a color. One usually makes shades by mixing a color with different amounts of black.

You can change the intensity of a color by mixing some of the colors complement with the color.
