Step 4. Below the fourth box is the word Analogous. If you will remember, Analogous colors are next to each other on the color wheel. You may use the cool colors: blue, green, and violet; or you can use the warm colors: yellow, orange and red; or you may use something in-between like: yellow, green and blue.

Step 5. Below the fifth box you wrote the word Neutral. Fill each square with a neutral color. Remember the neutral colors are black, brown, and grey. Each square should be carefully filled with one of the neutral colors. 

 Step 6. Below the sixth and final box is written Monochromatic. Please be careful with this one, many people use analogous colors instead of Monochromatic colors. Mono means one, so you may only use one color and it’s light and dark variations. For example you could use sky blue, Royal blue, and Dark blue.

Be careful, some people think yellow green is light green it is lighter than dark green, but it is also a different color entirely because it has yellow in it, conversely blue green is not dark green. Light green has white in it not yellow and dark green has black in it not blue.

Finish up. When you are done, photograph or scan it and send me a copy.
