How Do You Make A Color Wheel?
Primary Colors • Add your three primary colors: – Red – Yellow – Blue
Secondary Colors • In the middle slot between each group – Add a mix of Red and Yellow to make Orange – Add a mix of Red and Blue to make Purple – Add a mix of Blue and Yellow to make Green
Adding Tints • Add white to each color to give its tint
Adding Shades • To make a shade of a color (darker), you can add black. • HINT: Rather than add Black you can add a little bit of its opposite color on the color wheel. This creates lots of other colors. – Ex: Yellows become Yellow Ochres, Greens become Raw Umbers and Burnt Siennas.
