I am so excited about my new Color Theory Collection!

The color wheel, sometimes called a color circle, is a circular arrangement of colors organized by their chromatic relationship to one another. The primary colors are equidistant from each other on the wheel, and secondary and tertiary colors sit between them.

Color is one of the most important parts of creating and understanding art. Colors affect the way we feel about a work of art. Different colors can make us happy or sad, calm or excited. Colors can blend together nicely, or contrast in a jarring way. They can be bright or dull. The color wheel is very important for artists when creating a work of art for selecting colors and mixing colors. Learning about the color wheel helps us understand art better.
This interactive collection is designed to help children build an understanding of Color Theory and the Color Wheel while building language, literacy, and fine motor skills!

The full collection includes 11 reference cards that descibe each concept in clear and concise langauge. Then, using the wool balls and wooden tags children can easily sort colors into categories of primary, secondary and tertiary, warm and cool, complementary and analogous. For added fun and fine motor work, children will enjoy moving the wool balls with bamboo tongs.

"All colors are the friends of their neighbors and the lovers of their opposites." Marc Chagall
