Painting with Color (Ribbons)

I showed my understanding of this assignment by painting three compositions that were measured 6x6 inches.  All compositions consisted of primary colors.  The first painting is shade, where black was mixed, the second is primary with nothing added and the third is tint, where white was added.  I chose to use a pattern like this because it's simple and lets you focus more on the colors.  I also love this pattern because you can look at it in a few different ways.  My favorite is to view the yellow as a background and look at the red and blue colors as a ribbon going across the composition.  This project was fun, i absolutely love painting, i just wish we did it for more than a week.
