• Start with a blank circle or use a template.
• Divide the circle into twelve equal sections.
• Label the primary colors (red, blue, and yellow) evenly spaced around the wheel.
• Fill in the secondary colors (orange, green, and violet) by mixing equal parts of adjacent primaries.
• Finally, add the tertiary colors (red-orange, yellow-orange, yellow-green, blue-green, blue-violet, and red-violet) by mixing one primary with one adjacent secondary color.
• Once you have your color wheel, you can use it as a reference for color mixing, understanding color harmonies, and selecting color schemes for your projects.
