Red is a difficult color for me to get right that I personally like. Same with violets. Violets always look dingy to me (that I mix) and that's using the right color bias combos. Maybe it's just my choice of actual pigments. Will have to play with that too. Thank you for sharing your palette.Susan Bronsakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04446892704691993619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1123730594117077217.post-70696446895221318182011-06-20T13:56:47.413-04:002011-06-20T13:56:47.413-04:00Susan- I always use a mixture of pigments and cre...Susan- I always use a mixture of pigments and create my own hues. The green is a combo of cadmium yellow, Ultramarine Blue and a touch of phalo and olive green. The red is rose madder, cad. red med. and a touch of Ultramarine blue. I also used a little black, yellow ochre, naples yellow and burnt sienna. I pre-mixed enough colors in a little round palette for this series as I wanted them to all match.Sandy Sandy Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13609864061349114730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1123730594117077217.post-49147813217114671522011-06-19T13:56:49.216-04:002011-06-19T13:56:49.216-04:00Forgot to ask.......What color are you using for y...Forgot to ask.......What color are you using for your reds and greens?
