Experience the “Magic of Color” with a Handmade CMY Water Cube!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Have you ever struggled to find an interesting way to teach about light and color? Today, I’d like to introduce a project I made myself: the “CMY Water Cube,” inspired by the pre-made CMY Cube. This is a highly recommended teaching tool for intuitively understanding how colors overlap, light reflects and refracts, and the principles of the three primary colors of pigment.<\/p>\n

First, take a look at this. This is the CMY Water Cube<\/a> I made by hand. The colors and shapes that appear to float inside the water are so mesmerizing, you can’t help but stare.<\/p>\n
