More work on color lightening and darkening. Local color is the basic color of an area excluding the effects of light and shadow. Light will tend to wash out the color and shadow darkens and dulls it. If you can establish the basic “local” color of an object and then lighten and darken, using analogous or complementary colors rather than white or black, your painting will be richer than if you just “paint what you see” or what your reference photo shows.
Modifying “home” value • Using black and white only to model form dulls the result. • Using complements and analogous colors keeps the result bright.
