Kim Johnson called out greyscale and sepiatone for this week’s palettes but she neglected to include cobaltone- the blueheaded stepchild of tinting. And why is cobaltone so underrated? Sepia is a just a pigment, while cobalt is an element!
Certainly sepiatone will emulate a skintone better, but cobaltone is a much cooler look overall #rimshot
There’s a certain type of humor that I love and you have it in spades…
the deranged sense of humor?
Tone and chroma are both used to describe color; it’s been such a long time since school that I can’t remember if there is an actual difference or if it is just a matter of preference…
I am going to add monochrome in next weeks rainbow week. Grins. but this works for the black and white challenge as well. You know dis! lol I really really love that rain effect. How brilliant. It works!
I consider sepiatone, cobaltone and greyscale to be monotone, but that’s just my opinion…
I know people use the two words as if they were the same. I like to use monochrome when talking about art or a photograph. This might help. Monochrome: A photograph or picture developed or executed in black and white or in varying tones of only one color. Monotone: Sameness or dull repetition in sound, style, manner, or color. So it is just a preference type thing when talking about your art.
