Acheving Timeless elegance: boldy beautiful part ii

When you start a paint project one important question is what color/s to choose. Everyone wants a color that will always be timeless, but how do we achieve this? The answer: what’s timeless to you.

What’s considered timeless and trendy today may not be in the distance future. Maybe consider the feeling you want project when choosing colors. To help the process Let’s start with hue; Hue is any color let’s use blue as an example. Next is saturation, saturation is the intensity of color i.e. royal blue has more saturation (bluer) than baby blue. Value is how light or dark (Gray scale) the color is. Midnight blue has more black pigment, versus a sky blue which is whiter with a hint of blue; or a stormy color that may have equal parts gray and blue.

The good news: any color can reflect the feeling you want to project.

Paint colors are an expression and how you choose to express will always be timeless. Toss trendiness out the window, because who knows maybe you’ll be the one to start the next trend.
