Colour schemes

Tonight we explored colour schemes by using dyes. These were Dylon hand dyes mixed up and dropped with pipettes onto fabrics.

The first year students were looking at how the colours in different colour schemes worked together and what happened when they blended. The second year students looked at how different natural fabrics took up the dyes. They also looked a bit further at the colours using a different set of primaries...fuchsia instead of scarlet for red, etc.
