My finished #art . it was #experimental one. I painted in cyan magenta yellow and black. I tried to produce an #illusion of a halftone like in magazines. Next, I'll try to different shades of #CMYK like darker cyan and lighter cyan. Think of it like #pointillism . What do you see?
I've been I've been experimenting with various #CMYK shades, taking a somewhat manual approach. My next challenge is to map my custom #color #palette directly onto the image. This will be complex since I've lost touch with the process of assigning #colormaps or palettes to images. However, I believe I can achieve this by implementing dithering techniques.
In my previous projects, I used masking to isolate cyan in shadow areas to avoid over-darkening elements like a cyan balloon. It's a method I remember but one that requires patience and precision.
For this colormapping endeavor, I'll need to revisit some tutorials, particularly those for #GIMP or #Krita, to refresh my knowledge. Regarding #AffinityPhoto, I was led to expect free upgrades, but I've found myself locked out of version 2.0. They've broken their promise, and I'm not willing to pay another hundred dollars for the update.
