PRIMARY COLORS CANNOT BE MADE FROM OTHER COLORS
Secondary colors can be created from primary colors.
POINTILLISM
George Seurat ( December 2,1859 – March 29,1891) developed
a painting technique called pointillism, where dots of
pure color are positioned next to each other on a canvas.
From a distance, the colors appear to mix and create
new colors.
Tertiary Colors
A tertiary color is a color made by mixing
one primary color with one secondary
color.
Warm colors are red, pink, orange and yellow. This family of
colors is called warm because they remind you of warm things
like the sun or fire.
Warm colors seem to move toward the viewer in a painting
Cool colors remind us of cool things like the ocean or winter sky.
They include blue, violet and green.
Cool colors seem to recede, or move away in a painting
