basic color building |
identify a hue by placing your value viewer over your photo reference, then asking yourself these four questions:
what do you see? pink?
is it an orangish-pink or a purplish-pink?
is it bright or dull (lots of gray)?
is it a light pink or a dark pink?
|
Wwith the hue identified, begin with the lightest value color you see, applying lightly.
add layers by value, starting with the lightest and gradually increasing to darker values. |
building a light grayish-greenish blue like this might go like this:
10% french grey
cloud blue (pale blue)
20% french grey
light cerulean blue (pale, grayish blue)
celadon green (pale, grayish green)
light cerulean blue again
