Painting Resource 7?!
Hello everyone,
While you're painting, do you wish you could figure out the color combination(s) to get that right shade of red? Or are you having trouble painting eyes using unique color (for example, light green as a light source/under-painting)? Wouldn't it be nice to have some sort of color recipe right at your finger tips? Fortunately, there is something like that. It's a book, called 1,500 Color Mixing Recipes for oil, acrylic & watercolor by William F. Powell. This book goes over the basics from mixing values to color theory; and, of course, this book has a massive listing of colors and recipes to get that "right" color with your oil, acrylic, or watercolor paints. In addition, Powell goes over skin color, eye, portrait, and landscaping colors and mixing recipes for general to unique color situations. And finally, with your copy, you receive two mixing grids, one for oil/acrylics, and the other for watercolor. They are very handy if you follow the book's color proportion/ratio (or known as "parts"). If you're looking for a book that will tell you color mixing recipes, give you suggestions on your colors based on your subject, and/or if you're looking to find something that will physically help you with the color mixing process, the 1,500 Color Mixing Recipes by William F. Powell would be one of the books to have in your collection! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via e-mail, or leave a comment below! I hope this was helpful! Enjoy! Thank you!
