Subtle Colors in the Night

Black paper can be the background for pen-based lettering of brilliant, solid color, as well as the host for subtle colors and variations. Move from a controlled palette to a more fluid approach where surprise and spontaneity are integral to the design. Paint part of a color wheel on black paper; add white paint gradually to a color in a line of lettering. Change smoothly from one color to another. Work with the double primary palette to make clean colors and also revel in those dirty shades that come from playing off the grid. Develop confidence in the use of color. If you've never used paint in your pens, here's the chance to begin. If you are experienced in using paint, now is the time to stretch yourself by exploring the balance between color, white paint, and water.
