Well, it’s me again, old’ Joe from Cheap Joe’s.
Today I’d like to show you how to mix color and allow the color to mix on the paper rather than mixing it on the palette and creating mud. Because I hear, so many people say “how can I mix it and keep it clean and pretty without it becoming mud?” I’ve already activated three colors here the Aureolin, Red Rose or this, maybe Rambling Rose, any of those colors. This is Sap Green and now I’m going to activate some ultra marine blue the same way to show you how I did that.
I always like to mix up a little more than I think I’m going to need. After I’ve done that I take the brush, to keep from wasting that color, I take my finger and thumb and hold it like that and squeeze it out on the palette and clean my brush. Clean the brush and then I simply come in here and pick up some of this yellow color on one side of the brush, the red on the other and just touch it in the blue and then come to the paper just like, and wow look at that.
