Let’s learn how to mix purple without getting a muddy brown. Mixing colors for painting requires knowing which colors to select, understanding the tinting strength and color bias of your paints and how to properly mix paint using a palette knife.
In this color mixing tutorial, we will be mixing acrylic paint colors and discuss how to mix a TINT by mixing purple and white for each mixture. Although we’re mixing acrylic paint here, these tips apply equally to oil and acrylics as well.
Be sure to mix EQUAL AMOUNTS BY VOLUME when you start so you can better understand which colors have stronger tinting strength and may overpower other colors.
At the end, we compare a prepackaged violet acrylic paint color (quinacridone blue violet) to the 6 violet shades we mixed.
You may want to use the example at the end of the video (22:36:30) to make your own violet colour mixing chart to refer to for future paintings.
::Glossary of Terms::
Tint - any color mixed with white
Mass Tone - pile of color, large mass of color - in mass tone sometimes to get a read on what the color bias is, especially dark mixes like the purples in this video
Undertone - to view the undertone take your palette knife and scrape your color back to reveal more of the nature of the mixture - it is more warm or cool? Evenly balanced?
Happy Painting, friends!
