Product Description This Winsor & Newton Colour Mixing Guide takes the uncertainty out of mixing watercolour colours. Organised around the primary colours, with an additional section on neutrals and flesh tints, the book presents a gallery of precise colour mixes to enable an artist to recreate what is on the page in their palette and on their work of art. | ||

Watercolor Paint Guide The concept of this book is interesting. However, the color reproductions are not that good after I conducted my own experiments with the like pigments and that is how I based my rating. The format showing 1 pigment mixed with several others is a useful guide, but putting it into practice on your own is necessary to really see the results. Moira Clinch's 2 watercolor swatch books are a bit more useful and differently formatted. Clinch's Walter Foster published book has better reproductions, Watercolor Mixing Directory. If you are a watercolorist seeking to learn more about pigment mixing this book and others like it are useful for mixing ideas. However, to learn more about pigments Michael Wilcox and Hilary Page's books on pigments are 2 of the best references to use as guides to learn about pigment properties. | ||
An Indispensable Guide For those in need of a visual guide to mixing colors, this a terrific reference. The mixes presented are simple two-color combinations and run the entire spectrum. It can also help to minimize the number of colors in your basic palette... sometimes less really is more. Compreshensive, well organized and easy to use. A handy and highly recommended guide! | ||
Water Colour A very good book if your looking for the right colour mix for Winsor & Newton water colour paints. I like this book. | ||
