New Colour Mixing Hints & Tips booklet now online

An understanding of colour and the colour wheel is essential for every artist. At Winsor & Newton we have created a simple booklet which covers the basic areas of colour mixing in order to give budding artists a place to start.

We have now uploaded this booklet to our website so that it can be viewed at any time. It includes:

• An illustrated glossary of terms which provides definitions of all colour terminology.
• A technical in-depth section which includes how to mix colours and how different shades and hues will influence your colour mixing along with lists of the primary and secondary colours in all the Winsor & Newton ranges.
• A practical tips section which explains about proportions needed for mixing colour, along with how to manipulate the texture of your paintings and alter the thickness of your colour film.

This section of our site is explained in a clear no-nonsense manner and can act as a teaching aid or simply as a refresher for the basic principles of colour mixing.

You can find out more by going straight to the Colour Mixing Hints and Tips Section.
