shading colour tips

hey yall its me the Art Mom™ to help you shade pretty

rule 1: DO NOT SHADE WITH BLACK. EVER. IT NEVER LOOKS GOOD. 

  • red- shade with a slightly darker shade of purple
  • orange- slightly darker and more saturated shade of red
  • yellow- i think like..a peach could work but make it a really light peach
  • green- shade with darker and less saturated shade of blue or teal
  • blue- shade with purple
  • purple- a shade thats darker than the purple you’re using and maybe a little pink (MAYBE blue)
  • pink- darker shade of red
  • white- a really light lavender or blue..or i guess any really light colour??
  • black- okay listen dont use pure black to colour anything unless you want to leave it with flat colours because you cant really shade black lol
  • grey- a slightly darker shade of purple or blue (less saturated)
  • brown- slightly darker and less saturated shade of purple or red

aaaaand thats all i got lol. let me know if there is anything i should add to this list!!

If you’re a visual learner…

I made some Balls of Colour to go with Art Mom™’s post:

A small tip for blacks, don’t use white and make it darker. Pay attention to the tone you would like. For example, for something sad? Start with blue and desaturate it and you can shade from there. With this method you also can end up with something darker and richer than actual black. Believe it or not, white is the same way.

Personally, because of my taste, all my blacks are based off a red, purple, or green.

Happy coloring!

Stardew won this month, and this time I'm not even suprised since there was a huge new update.

I married Elliott in my very first Stardew save back in 2016 and now after the update, I started a new save and kinda wanted to "honor" my first ever save by marrying him again in this save.

petition for tumblr to make the boop feature permanent. reasons:-

  1. so i can shower my affection on mooties and followers without any limits
  2. validates my sense of appreciation and does not make me feel unwanted
  3. every introverts' dream who loves a blog but is scared to talk with them
  4. feels like an actual physical boop
  5. online love language

my only complaint is that the paws appear when you boop someone and not when someone boops you. I want to be scrolling and minding my own business and suddenly get whapped by a cat paw

Just listened to a podcast where two Americans said it makes no sense to write a date like Day, Month, Year because you don’t say “ninth of July, 2024” but “July the ninth, 2024” but in my language (Danish) you actually do say “ninth of July, 2024” which may sound awkward in English but sounds very natural in my language, and now I’m wondering how common it actually is in different languages.

How many of you say the day then the month and then the year when saying a date out loud in your language? Or do you have an entirely different order like year, day, month?
