Our final assignment in unit two is capture the concept of movement using the six tertiary colors of the color wheel. I’ve looked at the examples and the student examples provided and am still at a bit of a loss where to start with this. I have thought of using thin streaks of the colors much as you would see in cartoons.
We carried out a model assignment first using our tertiary colors for some brief 5 minute studies, and then using a split complementary palette for a longer study. I was reasonably happy with a couple of gestures – the crouch in yellow orange and the other gesture in red orange. In my case the split complementary comprised primary green and used tertiary red violet and red orange. On reflection this was perhaps not the best color choice for the model, having a lighter color would have been a benefit.
