This poster can be used as a class display or to be handed out to students for a lesson on how color is used by artists to convey message and meaning as well as emotion. Links to information presented on the poster are discreetly displayed in light grey, where information has been copied and pasted from online sources, should you wish to do some further research for your own schemes of work.

This worksheet is for students to apply their knowledge of color theory by painting/coloring in the color wheel and answering the questions below the color wheel. I have also attached the answers to the questions should you need them. I usually ask students to use acrylics for this task. You may want to download for free, my color theory introduction page, which teaches students the history of color Theory. This worksheet is also part of a bundle I have created available on my profile.
