LESSON 1: Color wheel

I love color! I hope that you learn some tips to help you embrace more color in your life too! AND PLANTS I LOVE those too!

Some terms to keep in mind for this section:

• Primary colors: red, blue and yellow - cannot be created by mixing ANY paint colors together
• Secondary colors: orange, green and purple - created by mixing two primary colors together
• Tertiary colors: red-orange, yellow-orange, green-yellow, blue-green, blue-violet and red-violet - created by mixing a primary and a secondary color that are NEXT to each other in the colorwheel
• Complimentary colors: colors directly across from each other on the colorwheel

MORE terms to keep in mind for this section:

• Analogous colors - any three (or 4!) colors directly next to each other on the colorwheel. ie. red-violet, red and orange

• Monochromatic colors - ONE color, but black and white are added to create VALUE. Creating lighter and darker versions of the one color.
