MIX YOUR WATERCOLOURS LIKE A PRO!
In this video I show you how to mix watercolours to achieve a combination of subtle and delicate hues, essential for landscape painting. We have a look at the importance of understanding what you can achieve with just 3 primary colours and a few earth colours. I show you how to set out your palette in a way that's simple and effective and demonstrate the benefits of using a limited palette. You will also get to see some of my most important, 'go-to' colour mixes that I rely on in my landscape paintings.
The painting of Kimmeridge Bay that I use to illustrate this tutorial is available as a Limited Edition of 50 prints - please visit for more details www.ourlandscape.co.uk/online...
If you want further details on the colours that I use, then please visit my website - www.ourlandscape.co.uk/kit-re...

I am one of the many who decided to take up watercolour when Covid hit. I was eighty three when I started. After paying foir on line lessons for eigthteen months, I have learned more from watching your beginners tutorials. I feel more confident about continuing now. I was just about to give up. Thanks a million.

Bravo, carolehayes5418! I am coming up on 79, and started watercolour painting in 2015 through a class given at my church. I just found Oliver Pyle's tutorials online tonight and have already learned learned more. I have not painted since Covid lockdown started here in Feb. 2020. So now I am refreshing my knowledge with tutorials before starting to paint again. Mr. Pyle is very good at explaining in " beginner's language" , not expecting us to understand the terms and all of painting and products right off the bat. I really needed this refresher tutorial so I can start off right. Keep on painting and playing with your paints and brushes dear lady. Have fun☺️😀 and try different styles and🎨🖌️ techniques for the fun🪁 of it. 🤗

Oliver’s videos are so informative. It took me years of workshops and classes to amass just a fraction of what he covers in these videos. He’s a wonderful teacher. He’s clear and easy to understand and his passion and enthusiasm for the medium is contagious!

I have just recently found Oliver’s tutorials and I’ve been watching for over a week now. I love his style of painting and his color mixes. I’m ready now to begin my own color charts and washes for skies and water. I don’t feel ready for an actual painting yet until I’ve done his practice sessions first. I also started painting after Covid, it’s been an extremely hard time for me as I lost my husband [who was a physician] to Covid. Slowly but steadily painting has been a great help to me as far as getting on with my new normal. Thank you Oliver for being such a great teacher and an amazing artist!

I started watercolours 20 years ago, I was never very good and did it less and less over the years... eventually only getting the paints out of the case once or twice a year. A few weeks ago I decided now that I'm travelling more to nicer places I want to make more of an effort with my watercolours by studying and trying something each day. It's been very clear to me that i dont have the expertise when it comes to having the right colours and how they connect to each other... but also how I always added paynes grey to change shade of colours. Having watched this absolutely brilliant, clear, easy to follow and understand tutorial... also my first video of yours.... my mind is now open to so many possibilities. Having practiced during and after the video I'm so excited with the results and how much my paintings will now change and make me less stressed and annoyed because now I have a much better understanding. Thank you so much

Oh wow Olly - the information in this video on mixing watercolours is absolutely stellar! When lockdown UK happened in 2020 I decided to learn watercolours, and my first job was to mix every tube of watercolour that I had inherited, with every other colour. I produced a note book of thousands of shades and hues, it was illuminating! My friends say I have a forensic understanding of colour now 😀 But I completely agree with you, you have to mix them yourself to see what happens if you add a little bit more of X colour and a little bit less of Y. Understanding the colour wheel is really important too. Thank you so much for showing us the colours you use, and how you created those fabulous rocks at Kimmeridge - it is my current goal to use colours more loosely and let them blend on the paper - let go of control, and Ultramarine Blue with everything! Thank you so much for your generosity of spirit and teaching 👍😀

That's how I started out my watercolor 'journey'. I don't have nearly that many mixes yet. Days when I may feel too tired to paint I mix colors. It is so relaxing. I too have learned so much and am so glad I started out that way. I still have more work to do as I have gotten a few new colors.

Oh my goodness!!! What a GIFT this tutorial is. Thank you!! Now I just need to watch it and practice 2 million times:) I have been learning watercolor for for 9 months. Some in person classes and now online. This tutorial is exactly what I need. I came across your painting as I scrolled through utube looking for new inspiration and completely fell in love with your painting style. I wondered if I would ever learn the secrets that produced such breathtakingly soft, harmonious and light-filled paintings. This tutorial has opened that door to me and I am so grateful for your generosity. I am English so it doesn't hurt that your paintings depict scenes that are very dear to my heart but now I live in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado so learning how to mix my own colors is pivotal. I would also like to say to thank you for teaching in such a clear, complete, encouraging but realistic manner. Your humor is an added bonus. I look forward to much growth as I hop on to this massive learning curve. Thank you!

Thank you Oliver! So helpful! As a beginner I was paralysed by too many colour choices. Then I did an online class during the pandemic with an artist who limited to a palette of three colours with not a lot of mixing. That was liberating and enabled me to focus more on technique and control. Now recently I had been struggling with warm primaries vs cool primaries and how to lay out my palette so this video was exactly what I needed for clarification. I’m out of the mud now! Your videos are great. You show everything from the mixes in your palette to clear explanations of every step. I’ll keep watching.
