Color+Lesson+Plan

Key Concept: Colour Scales Objective: Students will: a)Learn to use colour scales, chroma scales and intensity scales b) Learn colour theory - properties-hue, intensity, and value, value scales, colour and warm color, tints and shades. c) Use this knowledge to create a piece of art based upon the B&W piece by changing black and white theory to color theory.

Procedure: a) Intro to colour. b) Creation of a colour scale using Primary colours then secondary colors

Project- Color Scale/MonoChromatic/tints and shades- p=r/b g=y/b o=r/y Color Scale/Complements * Create 1 inch square scales numbering 10 squares Primary color in middle add black to one side, white to the other to reach dark and light of primary color * Create the same 1 inch squares  Each comp *lement one opposite ends. Mix each color in small amounts to reach middle maling a neutral gray color *copy Impressionist landscapes in Black and white then using complements- break down and explain complements

Project - *Create a monochromatic drawing /painting of geometric shapes *Create a monochromatic drawing/painting of organic shapes *Create a small landscape, monochromatic showing depth. discuss color schemes - warm/cool, dark/ light, symbol and emotional temp. of color Intensity

Project- *watercolor,Cezanne layering/washes of primary colors as per Cezanne

Materials: 11x16 paper maybe color paper,color pencil, chalk pastel, tempra paint, watercolor, watercolor paper

Artists: Wayne Thiebaud, Richard Diebenkorn,Paul Cezanne, Van Gogh

Assessment: a) Tie into objectives b) Walk about c) Hand outs/scales d) use of vocab in discussing colour e) Sketches and drawings-visuals f) quizzes g) sketchbook

Key Concept: Color Scale acrylic paint

Objective: Students will: Session 3 a) create small paintings of geometrical forms b) then repeat with organic forms

Procedure: Session 1 a) Create color scales practicing mixing tints and shades and complements b) Draw value sketches of fruit in B/W c) Then using differing schemes and value as per Hall Groat pictures.

Materials: 9x white paper, paint, brushes, sketchbooks, pencils, pastels Artists: Cezanne, Van Gogh, Janet Fish, still life Gallery

Assessment: a) Tie into objectives b) Mixing of color c) Color movement one value to the next d) Separations e) Craftsmanship/creativity f) Terms and conditions
