creative color wheel

This amazing color wheel was made from a blank slate by me on adobe illustrator. The program lets you do amazing things and is great for creating your own art work. This color wheel starts with the traditional color wheel colors around the outside but with a new twist on how they are displayed. then we have a layer of black whit and gray that are need if you want to darken or lighten a pure color. finally we get to the center circle which displays all of the color wheel colors with black white and gray.

This project stared out with just a boring normal color wheel then we thought about how we could improve it and make it more appealing to look at. Then we edited it to make sure we had it just the way that wanted and had classmates give there opinions on the final project.

I learned so much during this project  like how to rotate shapes and change there sides to make new shapes. Another great thing i learned is how to use the live paint bucket tool to color in individual shapes. I also got to experiment with the different features offered by adobe illustrator and found how much great ways to edit your work there is.

If i were to do this project again i would edit the shapes first because the editing can mess up some of the colors making it to where you have to redo them. What I would keep the same is how the color wheel is laid out with it's different layers.

In conclusion this was a super fun project and an awesome way to learn how adobe illustrator works. I had a lot of points where things got confusing but in the end it was all worth it to make this color wheel and it will help me on future projects.
