Learn colour theory: for artists. The hue describes the dominant wavelength of a colour. A tint is a colour that has been lightened by mixing it with white. A tone is a colour that has been neutralised, by mixing it with a small amount of its complementary colour. A shade is a colour that has been darkened. #colourtheory #colortheory #arttutorials #paintingtutorials #oilpaintingtutorials
