Building upon our study of colour temperature and colour schemes, I would like to do a studio exercise that brings it all together...the colour wheel!
We will create a perfect circle that is divided like a pizza into 12 even slices and each slice will represent a primary, secondary, or tertiary colour.
Primary Colours
- yellow
- red
- blue
Secondary Colours
- orangle
- violet
- green
Tertiary Colours
- yellow-orange
- red-orange
- red-violet
- blue-violet
- blue-green
- yellow-green
Your progression, beginning with any of the following colours, will go as follows:
- yellow
- yellow-orange
- orange
- red-orange
- red
- red-violet
- violet
- blue-violet
- blue
- blue-green
- green
- yellow-green....and back to yellow!
Now look back to the wheel shown above which I found at http://www.dimensionsthruart.com/files/images/color%20wheel%20labeled.gif. I hope it all makes sense given our conversation and practice today!
