Every artist knows that buying hundreds or even thousands of tubes to get every color needed for an artwork is not realistic, even though a paint selection of thousands would nice 😉
So the alternate option is to create colors from mixing two colours you already have slash owen. Below are a few of my old color mixing charts that show how I took two colors and created a third! This is a great technique and you will be surprised as to how many colors you can actually make.




This is a great idea. I have done charts in the past, but not in recent years. What I usually do is make notes about mix this with that. But it sure would be more productive to actually have a swatch. And have done the mixing.! Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks Nancy, glad you found it useful. A swatch really does beat notes once you have it there in front of you. Sara
