These books are amazing I just bought the copy for portraits and now I have to own them all I can't say enough how much of a game changer these are to become intuitive with color mixing

[@snowsjournal]

Thank you for showing these books. I didn't realize that it's a whole series of books. I have one on 1500 color mixing recipes from the same series, so it's nice to know that there is one specifically on landscapes :-) Very useful books and a must have for any hobby/professional artist.

I had been thinking of buying these for a while but didn't really know what they contained to be 100%. Thanks! Will definitely pick one up

[@mendyhand3895]

He uses color names of the color, and not pigment numbers. Names only. Different brands of watercolors, have different pigment numbers. Still, a helpful series of books. Thx for your review! 🖌

There weren't books like this available when I was learning colour theory. I made all my own experiments and charts. I would have been grateful for such an organized book. These look very nice. Anyone should be able to use this as a guide for acrylic or gouache also. They'd just need to take colour shifting into account and make minor adjustments. I'm not sure about watercolor because the transparency can have a big impact on the final result. I appreciate you mentioning that landscape colours don't need to be dull. So many people are against pure colour for landscapes. It often sounds like they're just repeating things they were told instead of observing nature for themselves. I've lived in northern climates and also tropical and both had the most amazing vivid greens and flowers so pure in chroma they looked like they caught the fire of the sun. I'm personally a huge fan of vibrant landscapes 😍💚 green gold🤤

Hello, I entirely agree with you and I'm making my own color swatch par different pigment. It's really nice to meet someone who thinks like you!!!

Hello all! I am sorry to veer off topic, but have you noticed the proliferation of Spanish comments advertising a .uno domain here on KZbin? Especially on art videos? I translated the comments to English and they do not make much sense to me. Either the comments are not related to the video or the translation is inaccurate. I have a very uneasy feeling that the comments are not appropriate for all age groups and might be offensive to many viewers.
