For my regular watercolor students I would like to include some examples of past exercises we have done so you have this resource to help understand values and the way they relate to building form. The first image is a basic value exercise, to show the way color gradually falls in to darkness gradually as it moves away from the light. The next example is an exercise we did showing how this applies to a landscape when trying to create depth, and the third is an example of how we can use the same principle to create a sense of volume by applying this value scale to a sphere.
