Colour wheel in an artistic way


The purpose of this drawing was to represent our famous colour wheel in an artistic way. I chose this idea because I thought it would be easy to recognize the colour wheel and it was original. Furthermore, I consider the "wine" makes a contrast with the glass and it really seems to be wine falling from a bottle. Finally, I used the method of the straw just blowing the very watery tempera just to fill the empty space using more or less the colours included in the colour wheel.

The second picture has the negative effect of the original one and it changes each colour to its opposite one. I really like the intensity of the colours and the contrast they make with the black background, mainly with the orange. I think they seem to be like neurons haha :)

Hue, value and saturation


Determination, patience, water and only five colours are essential for this drawing. Here we can see the three attributes of colour: the hue, the value and the saturation from the primary colours. I really like all these changes of colour and as I said in the colour wheel picture, it was only a way of practicing but the effect it makes is wonderful :)

Colour wheel with colour pencils

The combination of the three primary colours give way to this picture. As we can see, we can change from magenta to blue and to yellow very easily, just mixing. From my point of view, this is the best way to practice in order to make wonderful works of art with all the colours of the spectrum :)
