Class 25 | Color Interaction Free-Study

Critique

  • Present your Color Interaction Studies
    • 2 color study pairs will explore interactions by shifting hue, but not value.

LAB

Free-Study – Simultaneous Contrast

  • Working in groups of 2 or 3, design a 14”x17” or larger composition that demonstrates the concepts we covered in our Color Interaction Studies.
  • GOAL: Give a color at least two different identities throughout your compositions by exploring shifts in value, hue and temperature.
  • Using the color interaction pairings as guide, try to give specific colors at least two different identities throughout your compositions by exploring shifts in value, hue and temperature.
  • Use your own forms of expression and experiment with process. The final composition can take any form or utilize any medium you choose.
  • As with previous free-studies, research, thumbnails, color tests, consideration of overall compositional balance between figure and ground, unity, and communication of a clear concept or theme is important!
  • Divide up the project responsibilities. Each member of the group must physically create some part of the final composition.
