The Dual Nature of Gray

Sometimes gray can be almost indistinguishable from black.
The artist however knows that even a small amount of white pigment means that it is gray that is being used. It may be used to imply black, or used as black, it is however gray.
The clearest whites require only a smidgen of black to move firmly into the gray area. This again, can be used as white and can be used to heighten black, or gray that is near black.
Such fine distinguishing characteristics are often beyond the reach of many readers, in that case, slappstick works well.

You were invited John, and I believe that the invitation was given in all sincerity. I have not asked you too do anything difficult like expound upon gray, I have asked you to look at a very simple list, just skip the references you don't understand and decide. Have you done that in your mind ?

Good things and bad things are all gray, it must be so.
