Week 8 - Color Theories








First of all, I would like you to review the color theories that we learned in class (a lot of concepts for you to memorize.) Here, you can view what we have learned in class about color theories from here.


Homework:
Try out your water color pencil and write the names with neat handwriting. Follow the following examples: 1) The way of shading with your color pencils from dry to wet (use water and brush to blend) and 2) Lettering for hand-writing.










Do the practice on your 9x12 sketchbook. Lie out all the colors you have got from your watercolor pencils. Shade and blend individual colors from dry to wet. Find out some transition relations between neighbor color shades, rather than in random order, for example, put different kinds of greens together, and then transit to yellow or blue, which are close to the color green. Write the color names following the lettering instruction. Use a pencil to draw the lines for your writing (see the example), then use a pen to write. The major title could be like "My watercolor pencil colors," or you could be creative on this. Always keep your paper clean and nice looking!



Copy sketches:
Choose one of the following three sketches to do on your 14x17 sketchbook paper.
