Description

In this unit of two lessons, from EDSITEment, students are introduced to the importance and effect of color in the visual arts and consider the question "Why do artists use particular colors in their compositions?" The activities in this lesson guide students toward a greater understanding of the ways in which color can focus the viewer's attention, give the illusion of depth in a two-dimensional medium, and affect the tone and mood of an artwork.
