Anatomy Of A Font



For my example of anatomy of a font I used the font Black Cooper. In every font there are things that make it different from other fonts.  Some things you can look for in fonts are stems, extenders, descenders, and many more.  A stem is the straight part in letters like; B, D, E, K, There are more letters that have stems. Extenders are the parts of a letter that rise above the cap height line, letters that have extenders is a lower case d, and a lowercase b. Descenders are the opposite of extenders they go down below the baseline. Some letters that have descenders are a lowercase p and a lowercase q. There are many more things that identify fonts than just stems, extenders, and descenders.

My Color Wheel






Colors have different groups. The main group is called primary colors and those colors are red, blue, and yellow. The primary colors can mix and make the secondary colors. The secondary colors are green, purple, and orange. If you mix the primary and secondary colors together you get the tertiary colors which are colors like blue green, and red orange, or red violet. When you add white to colors you get a tint and when you add black to a color you get a shade. If you want the color brown all you have to do is mix all the primary colors
