I’m pleased to finally offer a set of watercolors in my Shop! The Essential Colors includes six vibrant Daniel Smith paints that have endless mixing possibilities. The set is a split-primary palette, providing a warm and cool version of each primary color. Hansa Yellow light is a lemony yellow (cool) while New Gamboge is orangish (warm). Pyrrol Scarlet is an orangish red (warm) and Quinacridone Rose is purplish (cool). Finally, French Ultramarine is a purplish blue, and Phthalo Blue (greenshade) is more teal (cool). The question of mixing neutral greys and browns always comes up. The trick is to mix complimentary colors together, those that are opposite each other on the color wheel: red/green, yellow/purple, and blue/orange. My rule of thumb is to mix no more than three colors together or they get muddy. Above all, just experiment and have fun! q.. http://www.davidsales.co.uk/2012/06/22/watercolour-technique-william-russell-flint/ http://mydelineatedlife.blogspot.com/2011/05/russell-flints-technique.html?m=1 http://gurneyjourney.blogspot.com/2012/07/russell-flint-in-action.html?m=1 https://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/palette4b.html https://mostlydrawing.com/2016/08/29/muji-pocket-palette/ https://mostlydrawing.com/palettes-and-paints/paint/ http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/ARCHIVE/LANDSCAPE/SONOMA/sonoma.html http://jothut.com/cgi-bin/junco.pl/blogpost/116/03Mar2014/Possible-Lineup-of-8-to-10-colors-for-a-limited-watercolor-palette http://jothut.com/cgi-bin/junco.pl/blogpost/81/28Dec2013/JR--watercolor http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist56.html http://rozwoundup.typepad.com/roz_wound_up/2012/03/observing-nature-pat-beaubien-at-the-mcba-visual-journal-collective.html http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/palette5.html flint http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist56.html sargent http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist19.html http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/cwheel06.html http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/palette1.html http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/colormap.html California Scene Painters: http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist28.html hopper: http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist23.html watercolor paintings: https://www.google.com/search?q=edward+hopper+paintings&biw=1024&bih=682&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjxp5yC9sDRAhVsyFQKHSLbBJEQ_AUIBigB#tbm=isch&q=edward+hopper+watercolor+paintings homer: http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist14.html whistler: http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist11.html Victorian watercolors http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist12.html Francis Towne http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist49.html Joseph Mallord William Turner http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist05.html http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/tech16.html#luminositymyth book: Watercolor With Rex Brandt California painters to investigate more: rex brandt george post Dong Kingman http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist28.html#sheets http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist28.html#dike http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/book1.html#whitney http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/artist12.html#foster Edward Lear Towne: Prussian blue or indigo, light red and yellow ochre PR101 indian red Daniel Smith PR101 venetian red Daniel Smith iron [prussian] blue (PB27) http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/waterb.html#PB27 PB27 prussian blue Daniel Smith velázquez palette http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/palette4b.html q. yellow ochre (PY43), burnt sienna (PBr7), ultramarine blue (PB29) My favorite alternative to the overly chromatic ultramarine blue is iron blue (PB27), which increases the green in all mixtures, producing cooler near blacks with burnt sienna and significantly more pronounced greens with yellow ochre. I find it is necessary to accent the red side of the color range to compensate, choosing instead of burnt sienna paints such as light red, venetian red (PR101) or even chrome aluminum stannate (PR233). These paints increase the hue range on the red side and a completely new range of textures and color mixtures with iron blue. A great way to start with this palette is to use only burnt sienna and ultramarine blue. These two paints alone, across the full range from masstone to tint, mix a remarkably evocative range of colors — a furzy tan, ripe orange red, deep brown, granite gray, jet black, indigo, a deep dark blue and a cool sky blue. J.S. Sargent and William Russell Flint were masters at pulling the full range of possibilities out of the combination of these two paints. Once you feel comfortable using these two colors, add a yellow such as yellow ochre (PY43), raw sienna (PBr7), or a greenish raw umber (PBr7). Depending on the specific brand of watercolors you use, it's possible to get a mossy green as well, essentially completing the color circle. The Velázquez palette lets you concentrate on very subtle mixing variations, since you must get all your color effects with minimal materials. Without the overwhelming distraction of the hundreds of possible combinations among a dozen or so paints, the painter more quickly improves his sense of color harmony and the unexpected eloquence of subtle gradations in muted statements. q..

Float this color into a moist wash to add variety to shadows. Daniel Smith Prussian Blue is lightfast and transparent, with medium to high staining strength.
