Exploring Value and The Subtractive Color

1. Discuss what you thought about creating the Value Scale and Color Wheel.
Creating the value scale was a bit hard. The part that was hard about it was using the charcoal stick to try to shade the boxes. So, I decided to do a value scale with a pencil. The value scale with pencil came out much better than the charcoal. I feel that my value scale could have been a lot better than it came out to be. As for the color wheel, I struggled a bit on trying to make the black from the magenta, yellow, and phathlo blue. However, I feel like I did a great job. Besides the difficulties I faced, I enjoyed doing these two assignments.

2. Which media did you enjoy working with the best and why?
The media that I enjoyed working with best was the color wheel. I liked it the best because I got the chance to make the colors. I enjoyed seeing all the different colors you can make with just the three paints. With working with the charcoal and the pencil I found it to be a lot difficult because of the shading. 

3. What was the most important discovery in the creation of these studies?
The most important discovery would have to be making sure that you have precision. While creating art, you must have precision.  Also, making sure that the colors match up to what was in the book. 

4. What is the most important information you learned from watching the videos for this project? What is your opinion of the videos?
 The most important information I learned from watching the value scale video is you how you should shade within the boxes and the pressure you put on the pencil. The next important information is how to draw the boxes. I feel as though this video was helpful as of what to do to create the value scale. The most important information I learned from the color wheel video is that primary colors are actually cyan, magenta, and yellow. I also learned how to place the colors. The video also showed how to mix the colors. This video was not as helpful as the other video was but it was still enjoyable to watch.
