Hour 049

This card is from SVS Magic of Color.

This lesson is about color blending going from two different colors and white and black. This one is tricky. I need to do more examples of blending into black and white. I think I could be doing better with the steps to make them more even. One thing I just remembered is that it might help to have a grayscale for comparison, just to have something to compare my values to. The two color is also tricky because one corner is light, where as in the one-color exercise, the whole bottom row is white. Overall, this went well but I think a few of my squares are off. You can see it more when I reduce the size of the image.

Next time I will change the file to include a grayscale on the side for reference. I’ll also go back to a single color for more practice before trying two colors again.
