I got my set of white objects on amazon, like this one: www.amazon.com/dp/B00EJSK8G0/?ref=idea_lv_dp_ov_d&tag=aiponsite-20&linkCode=ic6&ascsubtag=amzn1.ideas.3A5PWUZQN05KL. Glad you enjoyed the video - thanks for commenting!
this is wonderful, you have a fantastic gift for explaining what you do as you do it. I teach architectural students to sketch/draw/paint and will add this (and you) to my recommended sources. Thanks
I got red but I am going to get Winsor orange, sap green and indigo blue. I got the beginer artist set and pthalo green is to cool. If I mix yellow & blue it desaturates.
Tyrrhenus, you can use any yellow you like, but I recommend choosing one that is not a student grade paint or a "hue," as it will require much, much more paint by volume to make a change in the purple.
@@SarahSedwick and I have your "daily painter" book. your honesty about your frustration and struggle as an artist is really inspiring and encouraging to me. Now I am trying to be a daily painter too. Hope to see more of your painting videos on youtube! Thanks for sharing your techniques!
One helpful way to clarify what "cell" you're talking about in your color mixing charts is to label each horizontal row (the tints) with a letter (say, "a, b, c," etc.) The top row already has numbers (for the two, pure "parent" colors, and the muted, "child" mixtures.) If you added letters to your template for rows of tints, then you could just say "3b looks to be the same color as 2a." "3" would be closer to the purple than "2" is, and "b" is a lighter tint than "a" would be (all "a" cells not being tints at all, in fact, having no white added). Question, tho: Do you use a separate dry brush when painting each "cell"? If not, how do you keep later cells pure? Cleaning the brush each time in OMS is fine, but it dilutes the paint, making it less opaque. Wiping the brush with a cloth only gets part of the paint out, so a brush used to apply a tint will have some vestiges of white in it for subsequent cells. How do you avoid the inevitable progression toward "mud" as you fill the chart in? Maybe you just apply the paint more thickly?
Thanks Joanne! Labeling the horizontal rows is a great suggestion. I'm going to do it next time! And you're right - I keep the chart clean by thickening up the paint and using the fewest possible strokes to fill in each cell - not by using a clean, dry brush for each cell or cleaning my brush completely in between.
Thank you so much for your detailed explanation in mixing colors!
I love this video. I learned so much. Thank you for sharing.
She is an excellent teacher..it certainly is natural for her..
Excellent painting, I will be on the hunt for white objects and will be giving it a try, very inspiring. Thank you.

This is awesome. I’ve been wanting to do some paintings exploring the neutrals of complementary colours, so this is inspirational! Thank you.
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Helen!
These are fantastic videos . Thank you for putting the time into creating such a cohesive and comprehensive learning experience .
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoy them.

Thank you Peter! I really appreciate that, and I hope I can help your students! :)
Thank you! I just began watching your videos and I like your teaching style. It is so helpful, I am really enjoying and learning so much!
Thank you, Gina! Much appreciated. -Sarah
I want to try and do this but I got to wait to buy paint. I got to reference this for the next 6 months. This is the only place that has these colors.
Thanks so much! I love all your lessons!
Thoroughly enjoyed this ❤👍 Thanks
Thanks, April!

Why do people make color charts? What are they used for?
Hi Sarah, you use Hansa yellow. What other yellow can be used as an alternative if I don't have hansa yellow?
Tyrrhenus, you can use any yellow you like, but I recommend choosing one that is not a student grade paint or a "hue," as it will require much, much more paint by volume to make a change in the purple.
I love your economic way of doing brush strokes.
Thanks, Tia! I appreciate your comment. :)
