What is shade?
|
The terms value and brightness refer to the light or dark qualities of a color. The dark colors (shades) are low values. Below, the hue red is shaded in both RGB and CYMK modes.
As you move from left to right in an CYMK subtractive color palette you create each shade of red by changing the value of CYMK or in essence, adding black. This illustration shows shades from white to black with oil paint. As you move from left to right the shades are created by increasing the amount of black.
