You've successfully identified the problem with the palette I work with....Far too many colours used which all seem to clash! . Thankfully you've also identified the solution....Stick to 3 primaries+white+black. This will dramatically change the way I paint in the future. Can't believe such a limited palette can actually produce so many colours/tones etc . And these colours with be harmonious rather than to work against it. Thanks for this. Tremendously useful for me and others like me. 👍
Awhile back I started a color mixing chart but was doing it in a very labor intensive way. This is so much easier and quicker AND so much more fun! Thank you!!!❤️
This is an incredibly instructive video for color mixing. Systematic + harmonious. Going to my studio next to give it a go. Thanks for generously sharing your instruction with us 🎨
This is the most helpful art lesson I have had. I really have been haphazard with color mixing (beginner painter) and now I have a much better idea how to do it.
You could make your own charts with any other colors you like. The true benefit of this exercise is doing it yourself and to keep and have as reference for your paintings.
I was thinking about the color until recently. I struggled to find natural colors, and I didn't like the colors I used. Thanks to you, I learned how to make good colors. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! I have not painted for a year and a half and this has been a great review! I made a lot of mud today so this reminds me to go back to swatches
I went with ultramarine blue, cad yellow primrose, pyrrole red and burnt umber instead of black. The umber and blue make a near black which can be quite neutral when white is added as well as making an interesting muted green when yellow is added instead of white to lighten it. I’ve tried other reds, blues and yellows and those three just work out well for me.

Wow, let's do this color mixing all day long. These colors are gorgeous and I love this lesson. Have you selected new colors to try this mixing process again for a winter landscape? Thanks so much ❤
Yep, just the lesson I was looking for! I was always “guessing” as you said, and usually had 8 or more tubes of paint laid out. And the mud. Oh the mud!!! I would have been a great brick layer. Anyway, thanks for sharing this and I’m going to make up one of those reference note books. Cheers!
You are so calm and logical. Ive tried your style and its all messed up. You I think know a lot more about realistic technique than I do. But what you do is wonderful and you make it look easy but without an idea of composition this can mess up.
Thank you for taking the time to share these videos. I’ve found that it’s helpful for me to go back to the basics sometimes. It’s been a while since I made color swatches. Your video has reminded me how important and useful they are!
What a wonderful demonstration of a helpful exercise. I love the idea of keeping a notebook of these color combinationsfer it. I'm curious if you have a favourite pallette of 3 colors that you tend to work with more than others?
Comme "Galactic Witch", vos vidéos m'inspire beaucoup. J'aime votre technique de peinture, votre palette. Merci de partager avec nous. Thanks from France. 😀🖌️
Such a beautiful trio choice for your primaries. Going to play with this one. Thanks for the video. I love seeing trio/primary palette mixing and swatching videos 🌈
I just recently discovered your TH-cam channel and I have been so inspired by your art! This is exactly the video I love to see, these videos are so helpful for a beginner. Much love from the Netherlands!
I'm inspired! Wonderful demonstration. What brand of paints did you use to mix these colors? I find brands vary. My local store doesn't carry Bordeaux...
Maybe a reddish violet could work. But the beauty is that we mix the colors we already have and that way we'll discover new and exciting colors we never knew we could mix - I think you'll find that it's quite addictive and fun once you get going and mixing. Thanks for watching and happy painting :)
This is my problem. Lots of colors but no look of coordinated subtle color movement. I will take more time choosing a color palette and watching it "move". Thanks
This kind of painting and mediums doesnt egzist in my Country and seveeral around , colors doesnt have names omg hahahahahahaha, but i solved problem with money , post fee are much expensive then oils and acrilics , so inaf joke i looking thisd clases teacher i have question?
Lovely colours and tones. It helps to really understand the colours when I do these types of exercises. Thanks for the reminder to do some more. 😊😊
This was SOOOO helpful. I'd love to see another study using Burnt Sienna and colors that harmonize

I found it really important to use great quality paints...or none of this color mixing works! Love your style and videos.
Yes absolutely, need good quality paint. Too much filler and often bad color pigments in the cheap brands.
Truly enlightening! This is wonderful for establishing values while keeping the hue related!
Awhile back I started a color mixing chart but was doing it in a very labor intensive way. This is so much easier and quicker AND so much more fun! Thank you!!!❤️
Brilliant! I feel like I have wasted years painting without this way of mixing. Thank you so much for posting this Marie Louise. ❤

Thank you for this demo. I usually get lost when mixing. Great idea to keep a colour "journal" for reference.
Stunning, it is fun just to lay out and keep charts with such beautiful simple mixes. Thank you.
The timing of this video is perfect for me! Thank you & I really hope you make more! This is so helpful

Hi. Just wondering why you don't use a wet palette with acrylics?
Very useful. Thank you.
What is the brand name of the watercolour crayons you use please. Love your loose painting❤
Terrific
I'm inspired! Wonderful demonstration. What brand of paints did you use to mix these colors? I find brands vary. My local store doesn't carry Bordeaux...

Love the colors you started with but what red would you substitute for the burgundy. Thank you for such an informative video.
Maybe a reddish violet could work. But the beauty is that we mix the colors we already have and that way we'll discover new and exciting colors we never knew we could mix - I think you'll find that it's quite addictive and fun once you get going and mixing. Thanks for watching and happy painting :)
