complementary colors!

When you are using certain colors to draw, have you ever thought of how to make the colors stand out? If you have, then I have an idea of what colors you could use, to make your drawing stand out. These colors are called complementary colors. You may have an idea of what these colors are because it was thought in elementary school, and occasionally in middle school. Complementary colors are two colors that "complement" each other. That's how it gets its name! To find these colors, you may use a color wheel.


In the color wheel, the color that is directly across is the color's compliment. For example, blue and orange are complimentary colors.
If you use the complimentary colors, you can make the colors look balanced.

Good luck!
