Design Problem: Color and Value

Gray Scale Ladder

I haven't painted anything in a long time, but it was nice to step away from the computer screen for a bit and create some things with paint and paper. I'd like to start doing it more.  

Gray scale ladder - The left column is painted and was done in 10% increments starting from white paint and then adding black to create different shades of gray. The column on the right contains pages from a few different magazines that correspond to the painted color on the left.
