Instructional: Marker Blending Tutorial

Here's a simple instructional video on blending with markers. I've also posted some examples of projects created with markers below.

Important Vocab:

Blending: Basically, the overlapping of selected colors to either create a transition of color or to create a new color (a secondary color). Tip: Blend neighbors on the color wheel; not opposites.
Primary colors: Red, yellow, and blue. You cannot "make" these colors. You use these colors to "make" secondary colors.
Secondary colors: Orange (yellow and red), green (yellow and blue), and purple (blue and red); each is made by combining two primary colors.
Complementary colors: Colors that sit opposite on the color wheel: red and green, blue and orange, purple and yellow. Mix these colors and get brown. Place these colors next to each other and they make each other POP. (They "complement" each other...!)
Color Wheel: A chart of colors explaining how the colors relate:



Instructional: Two Point Perspective Tutorial

Here's a simple instructional video on two point perspective. I've also posted some examples of two point perspective projects below.

Important Vocab:

Vanishing Point(s): The point(s) at which lines converge and disappear.
Horizon Line: Where the sky meets the land. Also, where the Vanishing Point(s) sits.
Perspective: Basically, things get smaller as they go farther away.



Instructional: One Point Perspective Tutorial

Here's a simple instructional video on one point perspective. I've also posted some examples of one point perspective projects below.

Important Vocab:

Vanishing Point: The point at which ALL lines converge and disappear.
Horizon Line: Where the sky meets the land. Also, where the Vanishing Point sits.
Perspective: Basically, things get smaller as they go farther away.

Here are some additional examples of one point perspective. Don't forget to use the Internet to find other examples that you might like better!
