Abstract Painting: (If you do NOT have an adequate intensity scale, you will have to redo both before beginning these steps!)

1. Choose your b/g color from your two intensity scales.
2. Tape your matboard to a drawing board and paint the matboard a light value of one of your BRIGHEST colors from your intensity scale.
3. Transfer your abstracted drawing to a piece of FREEZER Paper. MAKE SURE YOU DRAW ON THE "PAPER" SIDE.
4. Go back to your intensity scales and choose 5 colors. Color code each color using colored pencils.
   
5. On your freezer paper drawing - color code your abstraction. REMEMBER TO HAVE COLOR BALANCE.
