Primary Colors:

(Red, yellow, and

blue) come from

nature. Nothing can

be mixed together to

achieve these colors.

COLORThe quality of light reflected from an object.

Page 7: ART ELEMENTS The “building blocks” of art. The tools by which we make art.

Secondary Colors:Those colors achieved by a mixture of two primaries.

COLOR

Page 8: ART ELEMENTS The “building blocks” of art. The tools by which we make art.

Tertiary Colors: These colors are created when mixing one secondary and one primary color. These always have 2 names (i.e. blue-violet, red-orange, etc.).

COLOR

COLORComplementary Colors:Are opposite each other on the color wheel. They look good side by side, but neutralize each other if mixed.

Analogous Colors: Are next to each other on the color wheel.

SPACEThe illusion of depth & distance.

Spatial Planes:

Closer objects are lower on the page and larger than objects behind them.

Page 19: ART ELEMENTS The “building blocks” of art. The tools by which we make art.

LINEAR PERSPECTIVE SPACE

Edges and lines appear to converge (come together) at a point in the distance.

Page 20: ART ELEMENTS The “building blocks” of art. The tools by which we make art.

ATMOSPHERIC PERSPECTIVE

Colors are darker, warmer, and sharper up close. Farther away, objects appear cooler, lighter, and fuzzier.
