VISUAL ARTS

Visual art students learned how to mix primary colors to create secondary colors, how to mix a secondary with a pri- mary to create a tertiary color, and how to use the color wheel to create color schemes. They used color pencils to create color wheels and warm and cool color scheme names in two different fonts. Each of these also included value gra- dients created with light to medium pressure blends.
