  1. Elements of Art • The elements are… • Line • Shape • Form • Value • Color • Space • Texture

  2. Color Color is light. White light can be broken down into the colors of the visible spectrum.

  3. Color Don’t get confused between additive and subtractive colors! Most of the color rules we discuss will apply to subtractive colors or pigments. Additive colors refer to mixing light. If you mix all the colors of light together, you get white. Subtractive colors refer to mixing pigments. If you mix all the colors of pigment together, you get black or brown.

  4. Color Hue = Color. These terms are often used interchangeably. Warm colors (red, yellow, orange) appear “warm” and advance toward the viewer. Cool colors (blue, green, violet) appear “cool” and seem to recede in a composition.

  5. Color Saturation = “pureness” or intensity of a color. We can decrease a color’s saturation by adding another color to it. Value = lightness or darkness of a color. Tint = color + white Shade = color + black

  6. Color Primary colors = cannot be obtained by mixing other colors; all the other colors can be made from them (red, yellow, blue) Secondary colors = derived by mixing two primary colors (orange, violet, green) Tertiary or intermediate colors = created by mixing a primary and a secondary color(red-orange, blue-green, etc)

  7. Color Analogous colors lie next to one another on the color wheel. Complementary colors lie across from one another on the color wheel (blue and orange, yellow and violet, red and green). Complementary colors intensify each other when place next to one another.

  8. Color Analogous color scheme Romare Bearden, J. Mood, c. 1985.

  9. Color Complementary (blue and orange) color scheme Edvard Munch, The Scream, 1893.

  10. Color Vincent Van Gogh, The Night Café, 1888. Oil on canvas.

  11. Color Triadic color scheme (blue, red, and yellow)
