dark purple paint colors for bedrooms

tints and tones are another word for makinga color lighter by adding white or making a color darker, the tone, by adding black.we're going to see how evenly we can try to get the progression. it's going to be differentform color to color. again, yellow is very, yellow and orange are very light and they'revery hard to get really dark. you're never going to get an orange as dark as you're goingto get a violet. that's just how it is. we're going to try, today, working with red. thefirst thing you want to do is putting your red where you think it belongs in terms ofa value. a red is not as light as a yellow, let's face it. i'm going to put it down hereand see if i like it. put some there. that looks, when i look across there that lookslike it might be the same kind of value, so

i'm going to leave it there. now, i'm goingto work with getting it lighter. this is when you find out this is why i've got these separated,so that i can make my white dirty and it doesn't matter. i'm not going to use my white forsomething else. we're going to move upwards on the scale. pink is essentially red withwhite in it, that's what pink is. obviously, you keep on mixing and you want to see, youcan mix infinite gradations of value. you can do this forever and keep adding just alittle snippet every once in a while. i just want to add enough so that we're moving perceptivelyup the value scale. so we're moving perceptively from dark to light.
