For this project, I practiced understanding values using one artwork in three stages.

 

Step 1: I started with a black and white version to study light, shadow, and contrast.

 

Step 2: Then, I created a monochrome red version to explore how color affects depth and emotion while still keeping value in focus.

 

Step 3: Finally, I completed the full-color version, applying what I learned about balancing darks, mid-tones, and highlights.
