...however I got confused when you said that value #4 for the background was the same value #3 for the light on the dog. Why did you duplicate value #3 and #4 instead of mixing only one value for either the light on the dog or the background? Then you said that...
Whew. I tried so hard to simplify this that I seemed to make everything more complicated. Sorry about that.

Let's try this again. I mixed a narrow range of five values from the lightest (called #5) to the darkest (called #1). I have repeated this palette below.

What I tried to say was that the light area (color #3) on the dog and the general background (color #3) are the same at this stage, i.e., I dipped my brush in the same pile of (#3) paint.
