to reveal how the colors on your palette behave when mixed with one another; be methodical. 1. get 12 sheets of canvas-textured paper and mark each with one color name 2. mix that color with every other color/hue on your palette and paint a patch 1" square; add white and paint another patch next to it, label with initials; vary proportions of colors - mix in equal quantities, then more of one color & less of the other, then more of the other color with less of the first, and remember to paint and label patches. this is the fastest way to learn how to mix colors.
