Color Formulas - Activity 9
Color Coordination Activities

Example: Student Work
The example above shows a composition in neutral (gray scale) and in a monochromatic color scheme. The main goal of this activity is to train your eyes to see different levels of "values" in different "hues"



 

Objective: to develop the understanding of the color properties and to produce design based on individual color properties or combination of them (i.e hue and value variation).

Supporting Tools

  • Classroom lectures (Slides)
  • Softcanvas Software
  • Examples of students' work (see example on this page)

Description
Create two compositions (symetrical and asymmetrical) using the RGB Cube Gray Scale--including black (N 0) to white N10). Recreate the same composition using different hues (or a single hue) while keeping the same value structure. Try to create a color scheme before applying color to the composition.
