Patterning in Color Theory
Color
theory is derived from an organization of color on a wheel. Using the color
wheel artists can find relationships of colors to use within an art piece. The
wheel is set up to allow artists to easily understand color theory and how
colors relate to one another. Within the color wheel patterns can be found.
Example:
Tertiary
Colors are colors created by mixing a primary and secondary color, such as
yellow and orange create the tertiary color yellow-orange. The tertiary colors
are always located between the two colors in which create it. This is relevant
for all secondary colors as well. Green always lies between yellow and blue on
the color wheel.

The
Color Fish
Creating
the color wheel in a linear system may allow the students to see the color
mixing easier and the relationships of the colors next to each other. For early
elementary purposes I created the linear system to represent a fish, you could
also do this with a snake or any other animal with a long body.
