Materials used:
For paint colors in both courses, we'll be using a total of 8 colors: quinacridone magenta, cadmium red medium, cadmium yellow medium, cadmium yellow light, phthalo blue (green shade), ultramarine blue (red shade or just neutral), burnt umber and titanium white.
You will only need one yellow (yellow light hansa or cadmium yellow light) for Painting Flowers in Acrylic.
If you don't have these paint colors and are unable to buy them, no worries! I have a full list of substitutions available. You'll need one warm and one cool of each primary color, plus an earth tone and white. That's it!
Color Mixing with Acrylic also uses an 8.5" x 5.5" sketchbook, but you can substitute any sketchbook with heavyweight cold or hot press paper. You may just need to modify the measurements to have the charts fill the page.
