As part of our koru painting unit, we learnt how to mix paint colours to make a new colour. Usually Miss Swney just gives out all the colours but this year she was brave enough to let us mix our own. Red, yellow, blue and white were the only colours we started with. After a discussion about what is a hot and cold colour, we were left to experiment.
We learnt that if you mix the following colours you will get a new colour:
yellow and blue - green
blue and red - purple
pink and white - red
red and yellow - orange
If you add white to a colour, then it becomes a lighter shade.
A sample of our final products are below:
