I finally got here after you so kindly pointed the way from Instagram. This is SO very helpful. I believe you've saved me a ton of money with this advice, and you'll laugh to know I was looking at some palette for sale that was three colours, black included, which I have since removed from sight, ha.Β
Thank you, thank you, thank you.Β

Oh I'm so glad to hear it was helpful! And money saving- that's always a plus
Haha, well don't let me stop you completely from painting with black. If you want to pain in grey-scale or more monotone palettes, then it's fun to try. But with color, I'd start with the primaries for sure. It's like a crash course in color theory and mixing.

Holy cow - I was looking into attempting water colour painting after being inspired by a few artists who do watercolour that I watch and this is so well thought out! I definitely feel more at ease knowing what I should or shouldn't purchase
That being said,Β I am creating an art resource group calledΒ the-artists-bible . I am wanting to fill it with high-quality tutorials and resources so it becomes a one-stop-shop for any artist wanting to improve or just needing a little help. I was hoping that you would allow me to add this tutorial to the group.Β

Nice article, great info,
I started using syringes for water and mixing way back in the 90's
your the first I've seen that does the same.

I got one from a person that had drops for a baby in it,Β large gauge and works for measuring amounts
when you want to try and match the hue's and tones, it works good because of the scale.
Two cc of this color and 4 cc of this with 120 cc of water.. it's prefect. got bunch more from an
insulin diabetic, that had a permanent shunt put in and didn't these old style of needle any more,
down to my last one, and the rubber gasket wears out and they begin to leak and stick.
push a little to hard an splat! paint every where need to get some more. they are the perfect
tool for the job, and way better then those plastic pipettes you can get, don't like them at all. Β

Yes the pets. Cat paw prints and hair on the painting and all over the workspace are a nightmare
