Project 1 / Part 2

Project One: Scales of Attributes in the Subtractive System / Part 2

This Project is due Monday, January 31, beginning of class.

Hue, Value and Inherent Value: Using 1" square increments, complete a value scale of the primaries and secondary colors, as well as black and white, in the subtractive system. These are G. O, V, R, B, Y, K (black), and W (white). Copy the chart above exactly with squares 1x1"; 10 across and 8 down. The hues will line up from top to bottom, and 8 increments of value with run across, with lightest on left and darkest on right. The left side will be pure white, and the right side will be pure black. Place each hue at its purest, unadulterated state at the appropriate value. This will illustrate the inherent value of each hue. Use black and white only to lighten and darken hues. When one squints, the values of each up/down row, should appear very clear and uniform. These should be as close to perfect in terms of their perceptual uniformity of value as you can get.
