What colors do you see here? What three colors did the artist use the most in this painting? What is your favorite color? What do you think the most common favorite color is in the world? What is the chart that shows the relationship between different colors called? Are these colors primary, secondary, or intermediate? What did you notice in doing this exercise about how the feeling of the painting changed? Does the painting appear more happy, sad, dark, or light?

What do you think the artist was thinking when he painted this picture? What do you think the title is suppose to tell us? Did the artist draw the parts of the eye? How can contemporary art be incorporated into these drawings? What does that mean? How can we make the ordinary look extraordinary? What kind of subject matter did the artist include in his work? What might have happened in this painting if three more things were added? What is dream like about this artwork? What eye-confusing artistic concept is being used in this painting?"

2. Use secondary colors (green purple orange) to fill in the positive space (eye) of the eye drawings
3. Use line types (horizontal, vertical, diagonal) to fill in the positive space (eye) of the Color Wheel Eyes
