such a great teacher, Julie! I cannot afford to attend ARA Boston for now (lucky students!), but I enjoy your videos very much, they're full of valuable informations. Thanks for sharing.
great video! Ièll share my heavy weapons, Anthraquinone Red and Blue from M.Graham. Looks great when i paint with it on random scraps of paper and mix it with other colors, but i still dont know how to use it properly lol
Hey Julie, thank you so much for this video! I have a question: I've been working on improving my limited palette to how I like it and what I'm still somewhat lacking is a purply red. Now technically I'd want all my paints to be opaque but I'm pretty sure I will not find an opaque purply red so if it's not that's fine. I want to be able to mix a very wide range of pinks and purples with this purply red, but I don't paint a lot of pinks/purples so I don't want to invest in the special guest Diox Purple, I simply want a versatile allrounder for when I do need it, currently I've been using W&N Perm Rose and so far I have not found limitations to it but again, also not a lot of work with it done. I know Al Crim or Perm Al Crim is a general favorite, but Perm Al Crim is actually a PR while Perm Rose is a PV, by my logic a PV allows for a wider range of purples and pinks? (Yes, I do have plenty of blues to mix with) I realize you solve this problem with your Diox Purple so if you can't really help me that's fine, but basically my question is would you suggest Perm Al Crim over Perm Rose or would you suggest something else as a versatile Magenta if you didn't have Diox Purple? (Can't be Rublev, Vasari or Holbein because they all aren't available where I live :( ) Sorry I know it's a lot of requirements, if you don't have any suggestions I'll stick to my Perm Rose and I also have Sennelier Cad Red Hue which is a pink leaning Red (but PR, so doesn't have a wide mixing range towards purple/pink) but it's opaque
The idea of a high chroma neutral yellow seems good. But by that logic, why don't you and more painters use Cobalt Blue? Thanks for the video. For video suggestions, would like to see further breakdowns on the usages of your palette colors, maybe with examples in your work. I bought some Cobalt Turquoise due to your enthusiasm like a year ago, and never used it ..😔
Cobalt blue is basically a lighter version of ultramarine blue. They serve many similar hue/chroma functions in a mixture. Cobalt blue is more opaque though. I have the turquoise instead because it’s both lighter and a “cooler” blue and opens up my range of blues that are possible that cobalt would not
@ElvenAcademy Just as a suggestion, have you given the Cobalt Turquoise some play time? Try using Turquoise with your various yellows and blues. Make color wheels and you will see some very interesting mixes that you'll create. The Turquoise with white is great for lighter areas of your skies and water highlights, for sure. But what I've found the most beneficial use of this color is in the mixes for secondary and tertiary colors.

excellent info thx:)
Thank you so very much for sharing your palette, Julie. It was fun and informative!!!
Thanks for explaining your palette!
Thank You. Good description of your pallet and colors with your preferences.

unfortunately alot of the high chroma purply reds are very transparent. Quinacrodone rose is the highest chroma pink but again, transparent.
@JulieBeck thank you!
oh my god, the largest tube ive ever worked with or seen is 15ml cause i just do watercolor, these are INSANE.
