• Simulated Transparency: a type of color interaction where opaque media (like your color aid paper) creates the illusion of actual transparency.

• Actual transparency is using actual transparent materials like glass, filters, or transparent plastics to create color mixtures.

• For this illusion to work, the ‘mixed’ color should not be darker than the darkest ‘parent’ color or lighter than the lightest ‘parent’ color
• It should sit between the two colors in saturation also
• If one ‘parent’ has an undertone of a specific color, that undertone should show up in the mixture—IF a parent is yellow-green, there should be a yellow and a greenish tinge to the mixture
