NOTES
on Color:
|
As
we did last time, we will put many bits of information together
at the same time. First a simple drawing to establish edges of the
"puzzle pieces". Bring the areas up in stages to control
color and value, and leave the details to last. The most common
color in nature is gray. Small variations in the gray that surround
us, make up the 'colorful' part of our environment. Learn to appreciate
the subtle differences.
