These same colors in the same place mixed with white to create tints. 3. The same colors in the same place mixed with black to create shades 4. 4 analogous colors (4 colors next to each other on the color wheel) 5.

Use the cardboard template. Fold a 12”X18” piece of colored paper in half like a book. Center one of the portraits on the fold. Leave a ½” gap between it and the next picture. Glue down all 8 paintings and label each one.
