color wheel and scale


I really enjoyed creating the color wheel and the color scale.  Creating the scale was actually pretty difficult! I found it hard to create a square that was just slightly darker than the previous square yet slightly lightly than the square ahead of it but I had a lot of fun creating it.

I actually enjoyed using the pencil when creating the color scale. Who knew that a pencil could have so many different shades to it? Who knew a pencil could create a completely black box, it is just something that I haven't thought of before.

As silly as this may sound, the most interesting discovery while creating the color wheel was that mixing two colors could create another actual color. Of course I knew that mixing a shade of blue and yellow would create green, but I have never actually done it before, so to do it, and to see it happen before my eyes was quite interesting.

I liked watching the videos for this assignment. I enjoyed the color wheel video because I felt excited and anxious to create my own color wheel while watching it. It was amazing seeing new colors form due to the mixing of other colors.
