Color-mood Shape Study **you will all need two 5” X 8” white sheets of paper, one sheet of construction paper, ruler, protractor, scissors, and oil pastels.** 1). Use protractor and ruler to draw multiple squares, circles, and triangles on the construction paper provided. (I would start out with at least one of each). 2). Cut out the shapes. 3). Arrange the shapes on the white paper to create a composition that has a mood. Keep in mind the elements and principles while you create an image. 4). Trace the shapes on the white paper once you are satisfied with your composition. 5). Use oil pastels to enhance the emotion in the composition using specific colors you associate with the intended emotion. 6). Practice mixing colors and adding value. 7).Write the moods you were attempting to create on the back of the paper. Project Requirements: *Create two separate works with two different moods. *Use at least five shapes in each-can be all the same or different. *Demonstrate knowledge of color schemes using at least three colors or three variations of one color to create intended mood. *Demonstrate problem solving using the elements and principles of design to create a strong composition.
