This project has been real interesting. It has taught me how to truly appreciate colors. Before we started, I thought that there was only one color, and I could rarely tell the difference between different levels of saturation. While painting the muted colors, I learned how even a little amount of white, or a little amount of a color’s compliment can drastically change the color’s hue. I feel that in this project that if I could have planned out the arrangement of the elements in the paintings, which would have helped the colors shine better. Planning would of also helped me ensure that I had enough of each color to paint everything I needed. All in all, I feel that this Swiss-style poster culminates the ideas and techniques we learned in this project.
