I particularly liked the colors in the center of the chart. This color set is one of my favorite exercises.
As I read through my various books on botanical watercolor, I notice that some artists work with a very limited palette, something similar to these exercises. And yet, there are others who may use ten different pigments (and some of them are already mixes!) in one painting. Everyone's work looks great. I guess it's a matter of personal preference.
Utterly gorgeous velvety browns and golds. I like the top row best.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations -- your secondary mixing is going well.
Thanks, Katharine. It's all quite amazing how many colors come available with a few primaries. It's getting a bit tough to stay focused on these exercises but I will persevere. :-)
