A sincere artist is not one who makes a
faithful attempt to put on to canvas
what is in front of him, but one who tries to create something
which is,in itself, a living thing.

Tanna set up her classroom in the first few weeks she arrived back at the castle and was now waiting on the corner of her desk for her new set of Fifth Years. She had been thoroughly impressed and grateful for her last set and was eagerly awaiting the new. This was also they're OWL year, so she was a bit nervous but had faith they would do fine. Seeing them arrive she greeted them with a smile and waited for them to take their seats before she began. "Hello and welcome to Art III, my name is Professor Ellis and I will be instructing you this year. To start the class I'd like to start the year off a bit tame, we'll be learning about the color wheel today." She walked over to her chalkboard where a perfectly drawn circle with various colors were drawn onto it. "A Color Wheel or color circle is an abstract illustrative organization of color hues around a circle that shows relationships between primary colors, secondary colors, complementary colors,etc. In a paint or subtractive color wheel, the "center of gravity" is usually (but not always) black, representing all colors of light being absorbed; in a color circle, on the other hand, the center is white or gray, indicating a mixture of different wavelengths of light (all wavelengths, or two complementary colors, for example).
The arrangement of colors around the color circle is often considered to be in correspondence with the wavelengths of light, as opposed to hues, in accord with the original color circle of Isaac Newton. Modern color circles include the purples, however, between red and violet. The typical artists' paint or pigment color wheel includes the blue, red, and yellow primary colors. The corresponding secondary colors are green, orange, and violet or purple. The tertiary colors are red–orange, red–violet, yellow–orange, yellow–green, blue–violet and blue–green.
There is no straight-line relationship between colors mixed in pigment, which vary from medium to medium. As such, a painter's color wheel is indicative rather than predictive, being used to compare existing colors rather than calculate exact colors of mixtures. Because of differences relating to the medium, different color wheels can be created according to the type of paint or other medium used, and many artists make their own individual color wheels. These often contain only blocks of color rather than the gradation between tones that is characteristic of the color circle.
For today I'd like you to create a personal color wheel using the primary colors of Blue, Red, Yellow, and White. Create the color combinations to reflect you and what you like to reflect in your art." Tanna grinned out over the class. She hoped she hadn't scared them.

spaceGypsy entered the art classroom with her usual flourish, shooting Professor Ellis a wide, excited grin. She loved being back in this class... mostly because this class was about as close as she got to actually getting to work while she was at school. She had the dorms, of course, but she was always worried about making a mess. Besides, her creative process was totally impeded by the general feel of the dormitories. She was pretty sure she'd do better this year, of course, what with knowing where the Room of Requirement was, but still. It was nice to have a class where she got to do her favorite thing to do. She half-assed her note-taking for the class, not really needing to take notes at all but feeling like it would be rude not to, and then began to contemplate her assignment. Color wheels were old hat, really. She did them all the time to try and figure out what palette she wanted to use for her paintings. Hm... maybe she could work on planning something now. Actually... she pulled out her sketchbook and flipped through it, smiling lightly as the landed on one sketch she'd done, something she wanted to try and find time to paint in class if she could. This would be a great time to figure out the color scheme... she set to work on it, starting with a bold, bright red, and creating various pinks from it. Then, she made a dark, inky blue, like the sky at night, and slowly lightened it to a pale, ethereal tone. To bridge the gap between the two tones, she added just a touch of pale pink to the lightest blue, making it a pale lilac. For contrast, she added a pale, sunrise yellow. It seemed out of place in the set, but when she made the actual painting, it would be perfect, she knew.

Tanna walked excitedly back into her classroom and waited on the edge of her desk for her students to file in before beginning. "Great jobs on your color wheels, very expressive and very insightful. This week we'll be learning proper painting techniques which is sort of difficult to go over. There are just so many types of paint and supplies that some techniques don't work well with certain types like it does with others. The painting mediums are oil, pastel, watercolor, acrylic, ink, hot wax, fresco, gouache, enamel, spray paint, tempera, and water miscible oil paint! So much fun and so little time..." she pouted a bit but put her smile right back on her face. "Oh well, we'll just have to make do. If you've noticed it or not I've placed the different mediums in different stations all around the room so you may try for yourself which ones you like but before that I do have a few techniques that seem to work well with either all or the majority.
Be precise but not picky. Some paints like watercolor are difficult because if you make a mistake you can't chip it off like you can for oil. However, you can repaint or blot over the area or just incorporate the mistake into your final presentation no one will notice! Painting is an expression not a doctrine.
Sketch it first. This may not always work, especially with spray paints and some water based paints but lightly sketching your desired product may help with either keeping that in mind or show you how to enhance it.
Finally, Take it easy take it slow. Painting is not a game of Quidditch, though the rewards can be just as great. Just like with sketching take your time, it will still be there if you decide to leave it for a while. Trust me." she chuckled thinking of all her unfinished paintings in the back." Suddenly Tanna clapped and made shooing gestures towards the stations. "Go on go on! Take a look give it a shot."

Tanna walked into her art classroom giving a smile to her only girls. She hadn't been that surprised to see so few students in the higher Arts but she was very impressed by the determination and skill that they both displayed. That thought in mind she went over to the chalkboard to write Painting enchantments before turning back towards the small class and clapping happily.
"Alright, welcome again and I'm very excited for this class, and I'm sure you will be as well Gypsy, Cora. We've gone over everything you had concerns over from previous classes, colors and their overlapping properties, and of course techniques. Now it's time to put it all together! Today we'll be using a simple and relatively easy painting enchantment to make whatever you paint today move.
If you can remember the sketching enchantment, concio then know that the technique for that is relatively similar to this one. Paint your background, moving or non-moving, your moving subject, and your creative plot. Unlike the sketching one however, a paints enchantments are fuller more..personal. Sketches are lines and shadings put on parchment, painting takes time and measured critical strokes. In the old days painting truly did take blood, sweat, and tears it's why there are so many different painting enchantments. The one we're using today is the generalized one but takes the most focus because of it's generalization. That's the main reason most wait until their fifth or sixth year to try. Once you have completed your painting take your wand and hold it as close to the painting as you can and speak these words very clearly while imaging your desired effect: pingunt in vitam. If you need me, you know where to find me!"

Kenny entered the classroom, having missed the last class due to a stomach bug. Ugh, he really hated throwing up. He handed an excuse to Professor Hawthorne and took a seat, looking around and listening to the assignment for the class. They were working with paints? Granted, he was more used to sketches and charcoals and such, but he actually never really tried painting, not for a long while. It was worth a shot. Deciding to stop off at the professor, he rubbed the back of his head. "Umm, Professor Hawthorne, is it okay if I work on my colour wheel later in the week and turn it in? I don't want to miss credit for it, considering I was out last class." After asking, he wandered around, trying to figure out which paint medium he was going to use. There were a lot of choices, and while he was excellent at sketches, he knew he was going to have to do something new here. Deciding that he could do an acrylic, he went to work on the sketch portion first, first trying to think of what he could paint. That was usually harder than the actual act of drawing.
