Practical Traditional Paint Color Mixing Tutorial
I made this with my watercolors, but it can be used as a guide for acrylic paints and oil paints. I had a very hard time with watercolors for a very long time. When I started reading websites and books on some color mixing techniques, it started to click. This is my small contribution to the community that will hopefully be of some value. Update 28-10-07 Tweaked some readability issues Gave some suggestions on other common names for the paints I recommended Added a mini description on how to mix color progression samples Additional Resources New to watercolors? Check out this news article for some great dA resources. handprint - an exhaustive watercolor resource Don't know the names of your colors? try these steps and discover the perfect mix of your colors. --- EDIT OMG a DD?! I am honored that =IBinsanity and ^bleedsopretty felt this would be valuable to share in this manner. Daily DeviationGiven 2007-10-23It seems on dA that people who want to learn painting can be overwhelmed with tutorials that presume a foreknowledge of colour theory, and most of the colour theory tutorials on dA are very technical. Practical Colors Tutorial by *leftyfro assumes no previous learning - it's nice, simple, basic, and very in-depth, teaching how to mix any colour that the average painting student would ever need.
