Colour mixing is probably one of my favourite things to do. However, it does take some practice and knowledge of colour theory. In this series I will be highlighting different colours and how to mix different shades of them. For this I will be using a limited palette of 8 student grade watercolour from Winsor & Newton:

Emma stated when she acquired some pro w&n paints that her tutorials would be done with student grade paints. Frankly, the w&n student paints (Cotman) are FABULOUS, & since her lessons here on YT are FREE to us, I take NO umbrage with her choices. I am tremendously thankful for the gifts she brings to all of us 3 x a week.
I’m so glad that I’m not alone in my decades-long vendetta against Cadmium Red. 😂 Little autistic me was driving art teachers crazy by insisting that it was far more orange than red, and it should either be renamed, or tossed from the palette completely.
I still hold this opinion at 31 years old.
I appreciate you sharing about magenta at the end. Not many people want to go down that particular rabbit hole. As an absolute beginner it has been an eye opener. I love your videos. They are absolutely fantastic, dash of this or that, oops a bit more of that. It's great to see and hear your reactions as you create. I'm learning so much and to loosen up a bit and just have fun. Thank you!
Enma, I love your videos, the easy way you explain every thing.... You do it nice and simple, but there's only one thing about it that hard me, I can't follow you, before I could wash my brush, you have change twice the colors. I learn a lot with you, but sometimes I do the exercise with you, and on less I stop it and continuing, and take back many times it' s not easy. You are a professional, and very creative, that doesn't give me chance to follow you. Perhaps Yo could do another one's for beginners like me. I will be very grateful, even do I still grateful and thank you very much for your artistical labor, and for sharing all your knowledge. A salutation from Spain.
This is such a big help to us newbies. Thank you so much for all you do for us.
I began my florals with Emma over 3 years ago--peonies in fact, & were it not for her floral tutorials, I'd be SO screwed! She's the best of the best.
Thank you for showing us how the colors work together. There is a lot to remember. I think I need a whole paper tablet to do all the color swatches and labeling for reference.
I loved the rose you painted.
Woohoo, red and pink...💗🎨
Loving this series Emma, I've struggled with colour mixing and this has helped me become more confident in my mixing instead of just using the standard colours in my WN Cotman pallet.
You are the permanent rose to my COVID lockdown... thank you for all your videos .. taking up watercolor painting and I love watching and learning from you! Best wishes
Thank you Emma, this one and the illustrations series have been my absolute favourite. I am learning so much from you. You are a huge inspiration 🥰
A color is only as beautiful as the colors around it
Love your approach!!
Thanks a lot . You opened a whole nee world for me.
Oh this is sooooo beautiful...I'm seeing this on Christmas cards and wall paintings, on coffee mugs... haha thank you for sharing your wonderful talent and skills, Emma.
You are so talented lady! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me! Love this mixing series!
Learning lots and enjoying this series. Love the florals too!
These paint mixing videos are so helpful. Thank you!
Loving this series too!👏🤩🎨🇫🇷
Thank you for sharing this series, Emma! It's very helpful!
Thank you so much! This is very helpful.
Thank you Emma for one more mixing series video...It certainly helps! I know you use Winsor & Newton watercolors and hence this query to you. They have now Winsor & Newton 12/24 Fine Watercolour sets which are supposed to be cost effective but with same performance....Have you tried it yet? Do you know any feedback? I am curious as if those are equally good, if not as their professional series but even as cotman series then it would certainly a good option for artist like me with limited budget!
Thank you. I love your colour series.
Awesome video. I keep brushing off color theory videos. I'm like oh I know how to tell if colors go together but this was super helpful! I love your content so much
love love these👍👍👍
I really like the colour mixing too.
Great series. Enjoying this very much!

So beautiful thankful.
I love this series!
Thank you! Now I know how to darken my greens.
This series help me so much. Thank you. Kisses from Brazil 😘
Needed a whine red, so I mixed red with black but it always just kept ending up as brown. Thank you!!
I love your work.
If you have any tips for making good pale translucent pinks (without using white), that would be very much appreciated. So often, by the time I have the color I want, the paint is too loose and runny to have any kind of precision. (And if I'm using inexpensive watercolor paper, it blotches really badly when it dries!)
Try using less liquid on your brush. Or also you can wet the paper where you want the paint with clear water before you paint. Try both or just one and see what your results are. Better paper helps too... You can lighten watercolors by adding water.
Hope that helps.
Yea thx so much
LOVED this! Thank you!
Emma, thank you💛

Beautiful Emma
Like I said at green, knocked off my chair
...literally...the notification scared me to hell-
Uggggg, I’m so torn. I already use professional quality watercolor paints, but I love the idea of learning to mix. I decided I did not want to waste my precious paint on “just color mixing “ so I bought small tubes of the colors suggested. But honestly I hate the quality 🤦♀️. Now I want my normal paint in the pallet at least for the red, yellow,and blue, and rose.I can live with the rest. But then I’ve changed up the pallet and I am afraid it just won’t work 😂. I’m driving myself crazy with this. I want my pallet to look just like yours, but my paint to be mine. But deep down I’m afraid to take the Windsor and Newton Cotttmon out. I love the turquoise though, that’s a great find. Oh well I’m testing my colors to see what of my current stash I can pull from and then I will try to make a decision. I think really it’s the age old afraid to start syndrome, oh well I will work through it and get my act together and get something figured out so I can start this weekend!!! Thanks for doing all this , the information is so helpful, I learn something new every single day. I’m a faithful fan!!
If you died tomorrow, what would you regret about what you just wrote? Then do that. Period. Problem solved.
Thank you Emma,i have a suggestion,pls upload the video of masking fluid using.
Very informative. Thank you. Does this apply to mixing all paint such as acrylic??
Amazing, educational and inspirational ad always ^_^
Hey Emma--if we wanted to make our own reds, which shade of yellow do you use? Thanks, and this was a great video!
beautiful
Thanks for this. Love those dark burgundy shades! You have a link to the smaller palette you use, but what's the bigger one you show at the end when you're talking about magenta?
Why are you using your student paints again? I could never go back because the professional paints mix so much better.
I love professional have some daniel smith. between DS and Winsor & Newton, WN is more affordable. I can get WN buy one get one 50% off at Michael's (standard price is 4.99) were as DS is 7.99 and up. I have to slowly build my DS collection1😭😭
Other people might be in the same boat. Plus you can get the half pan palettes with coupons 🤷♀️🤷♀️ also maybe its a personal preference
She mentioned in the beginning that this was beginner lessons. Besides there is nothing wrong with the cottman paints. No one should feel they are taboo to use.
@@jrm2716 ABSOLUTELY!!! I began with Cotman and they are marvelous paints. Some of the colors are fugitive (low light fastness--will bleach out color if left in high light situations), but I'd be hard-pressed to distinguish between Cotman & W&N pro paints.
I was the first like☺☺
I really like your videos and how you explain ... but in these last color mixing videos I have a hard time understanding the name of the colors you mix since my English is not that good. Please give the names of the colors (pigments) more slowly. Thank you.
Never understood why they called cad red --cad red...i see orange also.
Is there a difference in the hues found in the cotman vs the artist Winsor newton paints? ie hookers green dark vs just hookers green.
