Shades, Tints, Tones, Values

The monochromatic hooked rugs in this book are works of art. While it might sound simple to hook with only a handful of different wools, it most definitely is not. In fact, it can be a challenge. Author Donna Hrkman’s realistic monochromatic rugs are spectacular examples of what an artist can do with a limited color palette. The intriguing topics are enhanced by her masterful use of shades, tints, tones, and values. These days, monochromatic rugs, thanks largely to Donna and her exquisite eye, are so much more than simple sepia and shades of brown. Donna embraces this challenging genre of rug hooking and explains her methods and techniques in this eye-opening book.
