Objectives:
I can demonstrate an understanding of the color wheel and the order in which it is created.
I can demonstrate an understanding of one point perspective.
I can use one point perspective to create a city drawing.
I can demonstrate how to use perspective to create a drawing that shows a viewpoint of standing on the sidewalk while looking up.
Vocabulary:
One Point Perspective- a way of drawing that shows how things appear to get smaller as they get further away, converging towards a single point
Viewpoint- shows where the view is standing; determines the horizon line
Color Wheel- a way to organize colors in a circle that shows the progression of one color to the next in rainbow order
Vanishing Point/Perspective- the point that all lines lead to in one point perspective (in this project, that would be the very center of the circle)
Perspective Lines- the lines that show the vertical lines of the buildings. This is the line we are using a ruler for that go from the edge of the circle to the vanishing point.
Concentric Lines- Lines added to a work of art that curve around a central point. These are the horizontal lines of the building that we are using a compass for.
Primary Colors- Red, Yellow, and Blue. These are the first level of colors that all other colors are made from
Secondary Colors - Orange, Green, and Violet. These are the second level of colors made by mixing two primary colors
Tertiary- Colors formed when mixing a primary and a secondary color together. That is why the color has two names (primary-secondary) such as yellow-green, yellow-orange, blue-green, blue-violet, red-violet, and red-orange
