week 4 logo

1. Discuss what you thought about creating your logo.
It was a hard process, i did not know what to put on it but after a long grueling process i came up with and idea.
2. Describe the process: creative thinking skills and ideas you used in the logo creation.

Week Four Value Scale and 6-step Color Wheel

Creating a color wheel and a value scale was a good experience and is necessary step in learning to work with different mediums.


I like working with the pencil because it is more precise. The paint was harder to use and more messier. Even though the paint is more versatile it is harder to use and i feel like im neater with the pencil.


using paint brushes and dealing with watercolors was the most important part.


How to mix colors and what colors really make black and how we use three basic colors cyan, yellow and magenta for things like printing, tv and computers etc.
