that's a good point! next time I'll try to get the plate with the paint mixing in the frame too.

I’m late and I’ve been checking in. I need to think about shapes when I paint it gives so much depth to the painting like it’s done here. Great job and very satisfying. Although I wish I could see the paints as you mixed them in.

thank you! what has helped me a lot when painting traditionally is to use a limited color palette. I find it difficult to blend colors with paints but if there's only a few of them, it is much more intuitive! and I also like using opaque paints, you can always paint over mistakes :) that's what made me not worry so much about having dropped the brush!

I enjoyed watching you paint. I find painting/color intimidating and I realize more that I should paint like I draw/be confident. I also liked that you dropped your paintbrush (something I would do) and it didn't derail your process. I'd love to develop the great sense of shape that you have. Thanks for sharing.

Oh thank you!!!

hey! here I am again ~ so the warm tones were a mixture of opera pink with venetian red, cadmium orange and lemon yellow. the cooler tones came from greyscale tones mixed in (black & white), and some winsor blue. hope this helps!

Loish

the pink color comes from opera pink! as for the other ones, i'm not sure, let me get back to you on that!

Sharon Tu

Another question is what are the names of the color you used in this?

Sharon Tu

Thank you! Will try soon! Looks fun!

Loish

hey sharon! i think i just used more greyish / desaurated tones for her skin. my palette was limited, it was mostly reds/pinks and then some black/white/blue for the cooler tones!

Sharon Tu

For the women on the right how did you get that cool skin tone? The blue mix with white? And how many colors did you use for this? Limited? Thank you!
