Color Blending


Before you can correctly and smoothly blend colors, 
you must know about VALUE. 
https://tabithaannthelostsock.blogspot.com/2019/09/value-scale.html

If you are my student, you have learned how to make a 
Smooth, Even, and Contrasting Value Scale. (S.E.C.)
We may have used this sheet to practive. 


Now we are blending colors together starting with VALUE scales. 
Before you start blending, you have to know how to choose the right colors. 

YOU NEED TO KNOW... 
Colors have VALUE. 
Some colors are darker and some are lighter.



YOU MUST KNOW COLORS have FAMILIES. 
Colors that are closely related on the color wheel blend well together. 
This means ANALOGOUS colors and TINTS/SHADES/ with their original HUES. 

We studies all of that here.. 
https://tabithaannthelostsock.blogspot.com/2022/04/creative-color-wheel.html

now, Grab this worksheet and use what you know to do what you can do. 
Remember, good color blending starts with GREAT VALUE. 
GREAT VALUE
 is SMOOTH (color in 1 direction),
EVEN (the right amount of each value), 
and has CONTRAST (Darkest Dark to Lightest Light), 

Read directions on the activity sheet. Get started...
