Value Strip

I first started with (the primary color) blue, acrylic paint in the center block on the left. I made five spots of blue on my pallet on each side, I added white on one side and black on the other. Every spot had more white or more black making it darker and lighter. I applied the blue to the squares showing I under stand how to make lighter to darker. I did the same for (the secondary color) purple but I had to create purple by mixing (the primary colors) blue and red.

This arranged by lighter to darker colors. This shows color. Originally I was just painting this and and I was going outside the lines. So I put tape on the edges to make it cleaner but realized the paint leaked through. I also realized it was streaky so I had to go through and paint over.

If I could go back and change something Id clean it up more and make the colors more closer to the next shade.
