Is black a shade or a tone?

Black Is A Shade AND A Tone.Because You Can Get, Grey, Dark Grey, Then Black, They're All Shades.Then The Tone, You Can Get Black :)


Is black and white a shade or a colour and why?

In one sense, black is the absence of light and white is the presence of light, and neither is a color or a shade. In the realm, of optics, white is a mix of all colors (of the spectrum) and black is the absence of all light When dealing with pigments, such as in paint, black and white are definitely colors. Shade are when you have different values or intensities of the basic color. You cannot have a shade of black, nor really of white. If you mix the two, you get grey, and you can have shades of grey. WHO CARES, they're shades. Black and white

What is shade or tint?

A shade is a colour after you have added a bit of black and a tint is a colour after you have added a bit of white Hope this helps !!


What is the result when you add tints of black and white on a certain color?

If you add black to a color, you will darken it. If you add white to a color you will lighten it. How dark/light you want the color to be depends on the amount of black or white you mix in. But be careful of using too much black. It can leave you with a muddy tone instead of a nice color. If you have to darken more than a shade, it would be better to use the color's opposite on the color wheel. White should be no problem.
