FAS, Super Tempera

The Colour Wheel:
The colour wheel is a guide used to understand
the theory of colour and mixing of colours that
go together well.

COLOUR DEFINITIONS:
Warm (Aggressive) Colours: Reds, oranges and yellows.
Cool (Receding) Colours: Greens, blues and violets
Tint: Colour + White
Tone: Colour + Grey
Shade: Colour + Black

Hue: Hue is pure colour - any primary, secondary, or tertiary colour that is unmixed with black or white. It can be another name for colour.

Mixing technique : start with the lighter colour, then carefully add the other colour until you have achieved the desired shade.

Mixing Colours and where they are on the colour wheel
Primary Colours	Red, blue and yellow – these colours cannot be mixed from any other colours. All other colours are derived by combinations of these colours.
Secondary Colours:	Two primary colours mixed together resulting in orange, green, and violet.
Intermediate Colours:	One primary and one secondary mixed together.
Colour Harmonies Colours that go together
Complementary Colours:	Two colours on directly opposite sides of the colour wheel, which when placed next to each other make both appear brighter.
Triadic Harmony:	Three colours spaced equally apart on the colour wheel.
Split Complementary:	A colour and two colours next to its complement con the colour wheel.
