Re: Re: Lavender

wow Neil,

I find it very hard to imagine anything that's named 'Cranberry' or
'Raspberry' fits within a 'lavender/lilac' color group.

Are you incorporating those strictly because of pedigree/traits, or do they
really belong in that color class, in your opinion.

Myself I think of lavender as a pure purple (50% blue - 50% red) diluted
with white the way you would dilute black to grey, and lilac would be
anything between lavender and a true pink (true pink being derived from a
primary red diluted with white).  Of course those definitions of pink and
lavender would have an almost infinite range of colors themselves just from
the 'percent' white in the tint.

hmmm,
Christian
