3000 Color Mixing Recipes: Watercolor: The Ultimate Practical Reference to Watercolor Mixes and Dilutions

By Julie Collins

A practical and inspirational manual that shows you a huge range of color mixes in watercolor. The aim of the book is to encourage you to get to know colors well and be motivated to explore and experiment with color.

Use the book as a handy reference when you want to know how to mix a specific color, or as a catalog of inspiration when seeking ideas to try in your work. The handy color viewing card included can be used to view each color swatch in isolation. This will help sharpen your perception of the color or allow you to pinpoint a specific shade to use in your own work.

PLEASE NOTE: The paints used in this book are Winsor & Newton Professional Watercolor paints. Other brands can be used but the exact pigments, and therefore the results of mixes, may not be the same.

Useless unless you have Winsor Newton paints

This book is useful to you only if you own Winsor Newton paints. I have several brands, except these, and I find it very difficult to use this book. I have to look up each Winsor Newton paint to find out which pigment it is made of, THEN I can compare it to something I own. It would have been SUPER helpful if the author would have done that for us.
