Abstract
Additive color theory explains how colors are created in both tangible and digital worlds. However, comprehending and applying additive color theory can be challenging for learners without adequate visual demonstrations and scaffolds. Additive color theory employing light also offers immense potential for artistic creation, yet in the K-12 art curriculum, it is often overshadowed by subtractive color theory, which employs paints and pigments. In response to this gap, Kaleidolight is designed for children aged from 6 to 12 to facilitate an exploration of additive color theory and art creation utilizing light as a medium.
