2021 Haft2COLOUR Calendar Project – June


Obsidian

Ah, June! Long days and short nights. Towards month’s end, soon after the summer solstice, the last supermoon of the year will glow in an obsidian sky.

Obsidian! What a great name for a colour! It’s not merely another name for black. Taking its name from the semi-precious volcanic glass – which isn’t always, well, obsidian in colour – the colour obsidian is always a deep grey-blue.

Want to create the colour? Use blue – not white – to lighten and soften basic black to produce the enigmatic and mysterious obsidian.
