I was playing with some colors that are new to me, and discovered some really great hues. Almost every time I order paint I order a color I am unfamiliar with. Sometimes it sits unopened in the studio for months, and sometimes I cant wait to try it. Eventually, I get around to exploring the new colors, and always discover something surprising.
This is the first study I did in the video, using Senneliers Sepia, Blick Matte Acrylic White, and Goldens Indian Yellow Hue fluid acrylic.
In this one I am primarily investigating Goldens Terre Verte Hue, mixing it with their Nickel Azo Yellow and some white.
This is an earlier version of the Sepia test. I mixed it with a teeny bit of Quinacridone Gold (from Golden) in those few bits on the right. Otherwise its just Sepia with varying amounts of white and gray.
Here are a couple of quick tests I did with some unusual colors (for me) from Golden: Permanent Maroon, which is relatively transparent, kind of an muted red-purple; and Violet Oxide, which looks to me like an opaque version of the same thing. I mixed them with white, and then with one other color, as indicated.
