Stage 3 Recording colours accurately
Blobs with some interesting effects
For this exercise I started with the three primary colours.
First I painted little blobs of pure colour, and then I mixed them with white, grey, black and their complementary colour.
I found this a very interesting exercise. Although the blue and red stayed throughout the exercise in close range to the original colour the tonal differences are distinct and something I had never thought of. My idea was to add black to make a colour darker and white to make it lighter. It never occurred to me what this would mean for the tone and vibrancy. Also mixing it with it’s complementary colour would have never entered my mind.
Food for though and experimentation!
