That was it on his palette. He mixed warm by adding more red or yellow, or cool by adding blue or white. What am I missing? By having a warm and a cool of each primary on the palette, are you just in for less mixing, or can you achieve a greater range of hues? He also demonstrated the beautiful harmonies achieved when all the mixtures are related. I've registered for your workshop in July, after following your blog for years, and am already in over my head!cnewellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12269543836918554406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-4746833315577766892012-05-13T01:09:21.508-04:002012-05-13T01:09:21.508-04:00Looks to me like you line up the cool versions dow...Looks to me like you line up the cool versions down the left side, and the warm colors on the other side.<br />I personally sub Transparent Red Oxide for the burnt sienna, because it is richer and makes for some great darks.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01799016923038189074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-46388576225755438372012-05-12T23:06:01.019-04:002012-05-12T23:06:01.019-04:00Hey Stape,
It's always a intriguing f...Hey Stape,<br /> It's always a intriguing feeling to see what another artist palette may contain. Kinda like poker, what wild cards are you holding..lol You say that your palette is somewhat large? I dont think so, I count 13 colors I think that is the norm for most artists these days. I personally work with 14. I've seen some individuals use up to 22-24 colors.....Dang..! I suppose in the end it's about capturing what you intended to, if you do it with 4 colors or 30....that is the final verdict. For the latter you better hope Dick Blick has a sale happening every time you shop.<br /><br />Fun post, Stap...keep it up.Albert.
