#camoboxfinal

When I first received instructions for this assignment, I was very excited for the colour matching part of it. I’d never done it before and it sounded very cool to do and attempt. As my inbetween space I chose one of the machines in our studio, with a grey and blue toned surface. My first thought when attempting to colour match these tones was “how the hell will I achieve those colors using only red, blue, yellow, black and white”. I started with just black and some white to achieve a grey tone, u then added some blue but noticed the hue was too cool so I thought maybe some red would make it warmer and give it more of the lavender grey look. After many attempts of mixing and colour matching u finally got the color. I completely emptied my white tube of paint doing this assignment. In my opinion I did an amazing job in camouflaging the box and color matching, especially it being my first time attempting this.

The box attempts to camouflage itself on top of the disabled parking symbol on the ground. The idea is to make it seem like the symbol is continuous, to make it better blend when looking at it from the sides. Although the ground is wetter than when originally drawn, the box does a good job of seeming seamless.
