WHAT I LEARNED FROM THIS ACTIVITY:
This activity was very helpful for me because I learned how to mix paints to make different colors. I didn't realize how many shades could be made just from a few paints, so this activity was very helpful in showing me this.

BROWN SWATCHES:
HOW BROWN IS MADE:
In order to make different shades of brown, different colors can be mixed. One way to make brown is by mixing green and red. Another way to make brown is by mixing brown and orange. Another is by mixing yellow and purple. Each shade can be altered by adding white to make it lighter. If the color has too much of one of the shades in it, then more of the other must be added. For example, if I'm mixing green and red to make brown and the shade looks too red, I must add more green to make it brown. This is how shades of brown are made, and I found this very interesting because I never knew how these shades were made.
