Teachers, save “Colour Theory” to assign it to your class.

Colour Theory Questions (Summary): 1. If you were to use oil pastels as a medium for an artwork, how would you make a light pastel colour green with only two pastels. Hint: How much of each would you use? 2. Why does the colour wheel help us understand the concept of colours and how they are made? 3. Why do different colours convey different emotions? 4. If I wanted to create the colour orange, could I place yellow paint and let it dry then place a red marker over the top to make orange? Why or why not? Hint: Why would artists do this?
