🎨 Introduction to Color Theory
This paragraph introduces the concept of color in paints and pigments, focusing on the color wheel. It explains that Isaac Newton invented the first modern color wheel in 1666, which consists of primary, secondary, and tertiary colors. The primary colors—red, yellow, and blue—are fundamental and cannot be created by mixing other colors. Instead, they are combined to form secondary colors: orange, green, and purple. The paragraph also describes a process for mixing primary and secondary colors to create tertiary colors, which are named with the primary color first. A template for practicing color mixing is suggested, using temper paint and basic tools like a paper plate, water, and a paintbrush. The importance of rinsing the brush when changing colors is emphasized.
🖌️ Mixing Primary and Secondary Colors
This paragraph provides a step-by-step guide on how to mix primary colors to create secondary colors. Starting with the lightest color, yellow, the process involves placing equal amounts of primary colors on a palette and using a clean brush to mix them. The guide explains how to mix yellow and red to create orange, yellow and blue to create green, and red and blue to create purple. It also includes instructions for filling in the corresponding circles on a provided template to demonstrate the color mixing process. The paragraph highlights the importance of adjusting color ratios if too much of one color is added by simply adding more of the other color to balance it out.
🌈 Creating Tertiary Colors
The paragraph details the process of creating tertiary colors by mixing primary and secondary colors. It begins with mixing yellow and green to form yellow-green, and continues with the creation of other tertiary colors such as yellow-orange, red-orange, red-violet, blue-violet, and blue-green. The paragraph emphasizes the methodical approach of mixing colors and filling in the corresponding circles on the template to visualize the results. The music in the background suggests an engaging and interactive learning experience.
🌀 Completing the Color Wheel
This paragraph describes the final step of using the mixed paints to fill in a color wheel, starting with yellow and proceeding in a specific order while rinsing the brush between color changes. The color wheel's organization is highlighted, with primary and secondary colors forming triangles connected by solid and dotted lines, respectively. The paragraph also suggests an additional challenge of mixing all colors to create gray or brown for the center of the color wheel, providing a creative way to explore color blending further.
📚 Conclusion on Color Potential
The concluding paragraph reflects on the educational journey of understanding color theory and its potential. It implies that the process of creating and filling in the color wheel has provided valuable insights into the nature of color mixing and the possibilities it offers. The paragraph leaves the viewer with a sense of accomplishment and curiosity about the broader applications of color in art and design.

there are many ways to talk about color
in this video I'm going to focus on
color in paints and
pigments the first modern-day color
wheel was invented by Isaac Newton in
1666 there are three main components to
a color wheel those are primary colors
secondary colors and tertiary
colors the primary colors are red yellow
and blue these colors cannot be created
by mixing any other colors together
instead when they are mixed they form
the secondary colors which are orange
green and
purple when a primary color and a
secondary color are mixed together they
form the tertiary colors the tertiary
color always lists the primary color in
its name
first you may notice on a color wheel
the primary colors are connected with a
solid line forming a triangle and the
secondary colors are formed with a
dotted line also forming a
triangle to practice mixing colors
here's a template I found to be
effective for this color mixing activity
you can use most paint medium I'm going
to demonstrate using temper paint
beginning with our primary colors of red
yellow and blue put a little bit of each
color on a disposable paper plate or
palette equally spaced
apart you will also need a container for
water a paper towel as well as a small
round
paintbrush
it is always a good idea to begin with
the lightest color which is yellow fill
in the yellow circle of the primary set
and then rinse your brush and dry it
with a paper towel next repeat this
process with the red and the blue always
remember to rinse your brush when
changing
colors while we're still using the
primary colors fill in the circles at
the bottom of the page so there are two
primary colors in each addition problem
next we will be mixing the primary
colors to make our secondary colors
making sure your paintbrush is clean
scoop some yellow paint and put it in
the middle of the yellow and red
primaries rinse your brush and add some
red to the yellow mixing them together
so that the paint is fully absorbed to
make orange if you accidentally add too
much of one color just add more of the
other color to even it
out use the orange paint to fill in the
orange space of the secondary colors as
well as the problem of what yellow plus
red
equals then do this again using the
yellow and blue always starting with the
yellow first and adding just a little
bit of blue to it to make
green fill in the secondary circle with
the green as well as the problem of what
blue plus yellow
equal
repeat this process with the red and
blue mixing them to make purple then
fill in the corresponding circles with
the purple paint because red plus blue
equals
[Music]
purple now it's time to mix our tertiary
colors beginning with yellow Again mix
some of the yellow with some of the
green to make yellow green and fill in
the corresponding
Circle repeat this process for the
yellow orange red orange red violet blue
violet and ending with blue
[Music]
green now that we have our primary
secondary and tertiary colors we can use
our mixed paint to fill in our color
wheel going in order starting with
yellow work your way around the color
wheel making sure to always rinse your
brush when changing colors
[Music]
notice again how the primary colors form
a triangle as well as the secondary
colors for an added challenge we could
mix all of the colors together to make a
gray or a brown for the middle of our
color
wheel
[Music]
now that we're finished I hope you have
learned a lot about the potential of
[Music]
