Publisher's Synopsis
1,500 Color Mixing Recipes for Oil, Acrylic & Watercolor is the definitive color-mixing resource for oil, acrylic, and watercolor artists. This user-friendly compendium is color coded for quick-and-easy reference and includes two removable color-mixing grids-one for oil or acrylic, and one for watercolor.
Follow these four simple steps to mix more than 1,500 color combinations:
- Look in the Color Index for the subject you want to paint-for example, "Broccoli."
- Find the Color Recipe with the subject's recipe number ("81") and a photo of the actual paint mixture.
- Use the Color Mixing Grid to measure each paint color.
- Mix the color.
Also available from Walter Foster's best-selling Color Mixing Recipes series: Color Mixing Recipes for Oil & Acrylic, Color Mixing Recipes for Watercolor, Color Mixing Recipes for Portraits, and Color Mixing Recipes for Landscapes.
