This exercise involved creating the illusion of a transparency. In order to do so, two colors of the same light intensity had to be selected. Once the two base colors were chosen, the color in the center had to be selected based off of the combination of the two base colors. Using different saturations of the center hue, I was able to give the illusion of three different arrangements: A/B, A=B, and B/A. Below is an image of my first design for this project. This solution was fairly simple yet very effective in creating the illusion of transparency.
This second design used hues that were not as basic as the first design. Using colors that weren't as pure turned out to be slightly more difficult, but it really brought out the illusion of transparency.
The most difficult portion of this assignment had to have been aligning the center hue. In order for the illusion to be convincing, the center hue had to be perfectly aligned.
This project was very helpful when it comes to understanding color theory. Not only did it give me more practice with color combinations, but also a better understanding in the way that colors can interact with eachother and create illusions of arrangement and transparency.
