LESSON 2.M:
ACCENTED NEUTRAL COLOR
Video Length: 15 minutes
How to use color in artwork can be a daunting challenge to navigate. This is part of a series of color theory exercises aimed at giving you confidence when using color. Before doing this exercise, I recommend you do exercises 1.A, 1.C, and 2.H.
Materials you will need for this exercise include:
1. A pencil, 2H or lighter
2. A triangle straight edge
3. An eraser, perhaps kneadable
4. Smooth illustration board or watercolor paper to paint on
5. Three tubes of acrylic paint as indicated in the video
6. A fine round sable paint brush, probably a 2
7. Optional: a larger round sable paint brush to fill in the middles, probably a 6 or larger
8. A palette or paper plate to mix the paint on
9. A cup of water to keep your brush wet and clean
