CHROMATIC CIRCLE


Before beginning to paint by using colors, students from SIES Humanes in Cubas have been experimeting with the chormatic circle. A color circle, based on magenta, yellow and cyan, is traditional in the field of art. Sir Isaac Newton developed the first circular diagram of colors in 1666. Since then, scientists and artists have studied and designed numerous variations of this concept. A chromatic circle is a visual representation of colors arranged according to their chromatic relationship.

Some of the students have painted a 36 color wheel and the rest have tried only with 12 colors. In order to paint a chromatic circle you have to begin by positioning primary hues (cyan, yellow and magenta) equidistant from one another, then create a bridge between primary colors using secondary (orange, green and violet) and tertiary colors. In this way you  get a 12 color circle. If you would like to obtain a 36 color circle, you have to mix the obtained colors with white and black and you have it!!!
Here you have some picture of the procces from start to finish and some of the final results. All of them are quite well!!!









And... the final result:
