Creating Shades

Paint a value scale of shades.

  1. Using red straight from the bottle or tube, paint the last block in the scale. That will be the block on the far right.
  2. Next, mix the tiniest amount of black into the red. Try to achieve the very slightest difference in value.
  3. Continue to mix tiny amounts of black into red as you move from right to left on your value scale.
