Blue in the Face

The blog Smashing Color created such a neat little color game: matching names to familiar blue faces. But I also love how she assigned paint chips to those faces to really highlight the shades of difference between Smurf blue and Braveheart blue. (For the game go: here, for the answer key and color chips: here). Maggie Maggio, blogger and artist, has not only come up with 21 faces, but also also devoted a couple of posts (real blue faces, Mayan blue) to every baby boy's favorite color. I'd love to play the game with other colors - it's such a clever idea and it really shows how rich the shades of one color can be.
