This is a really interesting exercise Shelly. It'll be cool to see them all lined up next to one another when your done. One thing that I find frustrating when painting and matching colors/finding local colors, is the lighting of the space I'm in. Especially if there are a few windows near by, the time of day has a huge influence on how my colors turn out. Have you experienced any similar problems yet? Also, do you have any big plans for your little canvases when your all done?
I haven't had much trouble with lighting because i have been mixing the colors in the bedroom in the basement- there is one window but not much light is coming in due to the snow- so i have a light hanging over the area i work so the light source is pretty much the same every time- though it is going to change here soon because i will be going back to school and be mixing the color in a new environment....so stay tuned i guess. As of right now my plans for after i am done is to hang all the canvases on the same piece of wood because there is no way i am putting 30 holes in a wall to hang them up- i want to arrange them life a wall calendar would be since i am doing this for 30 days straight- but then again i could change my mind! so all in all wait and see- i shall post pictures of the final project, eventually!
