Instant, Practical, Visual Guidance On Mixing And Matching Watercolours To Suit All Subjects
This book provides the watercolour artist with an at-a-glance guide to over 800 mixes and overpainting effects. More experienced water-colourists will already know their favourite colour combinations, but maybe this book will yield some surprises, even in the case of colours that the artist uses regularly. The beginner can cut out trial and error time by selecting a possible basic palette to work with.
Most artists tend to work with a limited number (approximately 12) of colours, known as a basic palette. The choice of colours is a matter of personal preference, but since paint manufacturers produce a vast number it can sometimes be confusing. This book helps not only in the selection of colours but also more creatively, by exploring the possibility of adding a new and previously unknown colour to your paintbox. This is a spiral bound book presented in a hardcover.
