Today's class- Today we continued our study of color. We started by looking at slides of art from prehistory to the late 20th century with a focus on the development of color pigments and changes in how artists used color. We then began a portfolio exercise in basic color theory.How to make this up- Above is an example of the two part exercise- a color wheel with primary, secondary, and tertiary colors, and mixing two complementary colors to create neutrals. There are too many steps in the process to list them all here, so I will make a handout available to students next week. It's a portfolio exercise, so it must be made up by the end of the semester.
Homework- Those who have not yet turned in their research assignment should bring it next week. Each week it is late means more points off.
For next class 3/10/10- We will continue our study of color. Bring back all the painting materials- 18"x24" pad, watercolor paints, brushes, palette, and some kind of water container.
