Students in 2D Art: Painting and Drawing began the school year with learning how to mix colors. Students studied tessellations and created a 12 piece color wheel with tints, hues and shades contained in each. The students painted the colors in the order of their hierarchy in art. Primary colors, secondary colors and last were the tertiary (intermediate) colors. Students created a value scale in each of the 12 pieces allowing them to practice painting technique, appropriate color mixing and placement.
