The second part of our colour teachings from Meg Buick included the concepts of muted colours and chromatic greys and their effects on each other.
Despite my initial confusion over terms which are widely used in photography, printing and art, I'm finally getting to grips with the variations between the uses when talking Value, Saturation and Hue.
I have been experimenting with palettes and colour mixes, coming up with some surprising results.
Had a great workshop with Meg Buick today, looking at the colour palette, warm and cold colours, hues, muted colours and so much more. The next workshop is in two weeks, and I have colour wheels to build!
Regardless of whether you understand the principles of colour, until you start mixing it yourself it really doesn't sink in.
I am especially interested in the chromatic greys which I was surprised can be made from the most vibrant, bright colours (and I have been assured its not witchcraft).

This unlikely looking trio comes from some 15 minute sketches of Mona Lisa - Imagined (as I remember it), Observed (from a picture) and Remembered (from memory again). It's harder than you think!!
