## What is Values at Play?

Use "Values at Play" to practice seeing values in art. Practice with one of the images included in the app or import your own image. Values at Play includes:

VALUE STUDY
Create a Value Study for any image. Choose the number of values to include in the study, and the value study will be created within seconds! View the value study full-screen, and easily toggle between it and the original image. Create "colorized" value studies.

IMAGE INSPECTOR
Use Image Inspector to find the Denman Ross Value and RGB value of any point on an image.

VALUE FINDER
Find all the points on an image with the value you've selected.

VALUES-TAC-TOE
Drag the cross hair to a precise location on the image you've selected. Do you know the value at that point? If so, you're on your way to a "Values-Tac-Toe." If not, keep practicing.
