Mixing Green Gold, Peach, Soft Grey and Taupe

Week 4 Colour Mixing and a Painting

Getting my ducks in a row still :-) My colour mixing demos are a little out of sync, Weeks Two and Three will be added soon.

I did a quick sketchbook landscape painting using the theme “House” with Week Four’s colours.

You can see how I use QoR High Chroma watercolours mixed with Horadam Titanium white gouache to create the four muted, opaque colours. I use masking tape to block out an area, and layering with opaque tints in this video.

Here’s the finished painting in my sketchbook on cold pressed watercolour paper.
