Project One

The two photos above complete the assignment for project one. The color wheel is on top, consisting of blue tints and shades which I used for my composition on the bottom. I chose this hue for my painting because I familiarized myself with blue tints and shades to place above my color wheel, so I felt most comfortable working with blue again. I am not very familiar with the other colors's tints and shades, so I chose one that I had already worked with briefly.

Munsell Charts

Above, you can view my completed Munsell charts of each of the different hues. I found this exercise to be challenging because colors often play tricks with your mind, making it hard to decipher where to place the swatches. I had a fairly easy time arranging the warmer colors, while the cooler colors were more on the difficult side.
