Light & Dark Tones:-

The tones in a picture can change the feeling or mood of it.

Light tones give a soft, pastel effect.

Darker tones make a picture look stronger.

Resources:- poster or acrylic paint, cartridge/ watercolour paper, pencil, paintbrushes etc

• Fold the paper in two and on each half lightly sketch the same scene. 
• The sketch doesn't have to be exactly the same. 
• Paint one image in light tones only.
• Paint one image in dark tones only.

Enjoy the session, have a good week.
