SAVE THE COLOR
Dr. Gray has been sucking all of the color out of the world's most famous paintings. Don't let him get away with it! With a little color theory and the help of Carmine Chameleon, you can save the art and destroy this villain's wicked Dechromatizer. The fun animation will suck you right into the chase, where you'll find yourself restoring art, cracking codes and opening secret passageways. Start with this code: http:// www.sanford-artedventures.com/ Then get to work! To complete the task, you'll have to do some detective work in art history. From Renaissance classics to modern abstract painting, you'll come away with all the tools for cracking the case. The adventure will continue beyond the museum walls, too, as you learn to make great art yourself. Learn the basics of 3-D design and color concepts. Don't let Van Gogh go gray--save the art, and make new art today!
