We got an opportunity to visit another museum that I had never heard of. It was extraordinary and what made it even better was the interactive pens we got to use. That was pretty unique, something I never experienced. They museum also had another interactive room where what your digitally drew was presented on the walls of that room. During this project I learned terms like tint, shade, dominant, sub-dominant and accent colors. Understanding these terms will help us in the future as graphic designers when we compose images and we have to represent it to people.

This final free study was created digitally. It has been composed with the same color inventory I had made earlier in phase 2 from ‘Textile, Loco Sole, 1968’ by  Gae Aulenti. The dominant color is the beige which is clearly the largest portion of the color inventory. That color is entirely in the background and that is also the color that has a very light shade. The red orange is the accent color since it is the most vibrant, its the first thing that catches the eye. I believe the navy blue is the sub-dominant color.

Tint Progression

Two- Color Progression

Shade Progression

My first image attached to this post represents tint progression because the petals on the artificial flower have a gradient from light pink to white. My second image represents two-color progression since the top of the lotion bottle starts with rose gold and fades into a golden shade. My last image represents shade progression because the dark brown fades into the shadows which is black.
