Do you feel stuck when you want to choose blendable ink colors? Do you often end up with dark or “muddy” backgrounds when using watercolors or spray inks? Do you try to create backgrounds, but they never quite end up like the samples you see elsewhere? The problem is NOT your artistic ability… it’s probably just your color combination.
You ARE an artist! You CAN make the project you see in your mind! And, it’s EASY to choose winning color combinations that work great every time!
1. For FULLPROOF results every time, choose 3 colors to create your background.
2. Vary the amount of color you use on your background. Go heavy on one of the three colors, or use all three colors equally. Do whatever you want within the three-color combination you choose.
3. Choose colors of the same “likeness” for your background (all pastel colors or all bright colors within a project for example).
