ANOTHER ZANY CAPER?

YES - I CHEATED - WHY?

BECAUSE I PURPOSELY LOOKED EACH ONE UP!

DOUBT IF I WOULD HAVE PASSED!

GOOD LUCK!

P.S. - Was all spaced out properly, but as usual, AD's incompetent website WRAPPED everything!

SORRY! I am now re-entering some spaces to try to make it readable.

COLOR MATCH

© - Tom Hyland - 12-29-08


While driving at work one day recently, an unusual name for a color came to mind, and I thought; “Gee - you don’t see or hear that word very often.” CHARTREUSE.

Then, my colorful mind took over, and started picking some more, like: FUCHSIA - AZURE - VERMILLION - MAUVE - and then it struck me - what about an old-fashioned Matching Test, like we did in school, as children. Remember drawing a line from the column on the left to the answer on the right?

So, here it is.

1. AZURE -------> A. RED W/ORANGE TINGE

2. BEIGE -------> B. GOLDEN-COLORED

3. CELADON -----> C. BRIGHT YELLOWISH-GREEN

4. CHARTREUSE --> D. PALE BROWN W/TINGE OF YELLOW OR PINK

5. EBONY -------> E. DEEP PINK W/PURPLE TINGE

6. FUCHSIA ------> F. DARK BROWNISH-RED

7. GAMBOGE ----> G. BLACK W/OLIVE OR BROWN TINGE

8. JASPER -------> H. PURPLE W/CRIMSON TINGE

9. KHAKI -------> I. PALE PURPLE BLUE OR PINK

10. LAVENDER ---> J. IRIDESCENT MOTHER-OF-PEARL

11. MAUVE ------> K. DULL BROWNISH-YELLOW

12. NACRE -------> L. PALE PURPLE-BLUE TINGE

13. OXBLOOD -----> M. DEEP BLUE

14. PALOMINO -----> N. PALE GREEN W/GRAY TINGE

15. RUBASSE -------> O. REDDISH BROWN

16. SIENNA -------> P. RUBY RED QUARTZ

17. TYRIAN -------> Q. RED CHALCEDONY

18. VERMILLION -----> R. YELLOW PIGMENT
