Color mixing is magic and will significantly improve your watercolor painting. In my last video we learned how to mix neutrals from our primary colors, now let's use those colors to create soft and subtle mountain landscape as we practice flat washes and layering.
I'll show you my three favorite primary colors to use. Phthalo blue, Quinacridone Magenta and Diarylide yellow. We'll also throw in some black for good measure. This is a great exercise for beginners!

Thank you for these videos! Still a beginner & not great drawing artist. Know patience, right color choice, paint consistency all matter & try to move quickly as if paper drys & try to “fix” just don’t! Love mixing colors. Ty. 😊

very serene! I think I'll set up several papers so I can create new abstracts while the paint dries. Get a series happening. Love the simplicity.

That was fun to watch. Can’t go wrong….just a study in color play.

Thank you for this neat little mountain tutorial. The biggest tip I took away today is that it's okay to add water to Dr. PH Martin's Bleedproof White. I often use it for making single stars in a night sky because it was too thick to do anything else with. I had no idea. LOL
