In this week, I got to get more accustomed to the concept of the colour wheel and what it represents. As I made the colour wheel, I realised how vital it can be for artists to use, as it displays the relationships that the colours share with each other. How certain colours contrast with each other and some can be categorised as analogous, complementary. They can also be categorised as warm (colours that range yellow, orange and red) from, or cool (colours ranging from green, blue and purple). I also understood why certain artists use certain colours together on purpose, specifically for the aesthetic appeal, and because of the way that they complement each other (for example: red/green, purple/yellow, blue/orange), and could notice these patterns in magazines, paintings, billboards, etc.
