Ratios
Experiment with gradient ratios.
Create a chart with 6 sections. On Both ends, paint or draw on your original colours. Using a palette, create a 50/50 mix of those two colours: you are looking for that middle tone. Apply that to the middle section. In the other sections, you want an 80/20 mix of the colours. Mix those in your palette, then apply to the page. Now you have a basic chart that shows you a simple gradient. .
