To tint a paint students had to use the colour white and add that to the colour of their choice. Adding in one dip of white paint to your other colour turns the colour darker on the paint pallet, but once applied to the paper or canvas the colour then appears darker. If you use another dip (two dips) The effect will be lighter. When the artist requires a lighter shade (contrast) he or she will continue to add the white.
When the artist wants to create a darker colour to use, this is simply done by adding the colour blue or black to your main colour, it is simple as that. Blue is a strong colour, it can turn any other colors with the exception of black darker.
Example of why we had to tint-
If one colour doesn't suit another colour but they both look cool, tinting the darker colour will make it right. (Example of why tinting is a good idea) Red and pink is the colour that are ideal but both colors don't suit sharing one object so add some white into the red to transform it to look little like a dark pink colour which would look great and better.
Great work. Use this to support you when writing the next explanation.
