This is gold. Bought his book for $5. He lowered the price because of the pandemic. It's definitely a must read!

While many people make paint charts to aid mixing, you are the first to provide one that makes perfect sense to me. Thank you very much.

A light bulb moment for me. I have been struggling mixing the colours I wanted, and finally I find your video, and you have shown me exactly what I have been searching for. Thank you so much Alek.

Finally a mixing video that was worth watching, and using the chart is so intuitive when you're done. Thank you.

I can’t thank you enough for making this fantastic video. I have always considered myself colour challenged and have never been able to figure out an approach to learning and mixing colour that was not completely daunting. This approach simplifies it down to a manageable number of mixing colours, tells me which colours to mix with which, and provides me with an incredible range of resulting mixes. After watching your video, I have spent the past 3 hours swatching and mixing 3 of my sets, (M.Graham, Schmincke and Mission Gold.)I think I learned more this morning than in my entire painting life! I plan to do this with all of my paints. Not only will this give me great practise and help to solidify this knowledge, it will give me a complete reference and library of my paints. Never again will I buy silly sets of 24 or 36 paints! I will be buying your book... Thank you so much!!!

This is absolutely the best tutorial of mixing watercolor. I will definitely be getting his e-book.

[@DebraMorgan6455]

The best explanation to understanding the many colors you can use with others. Thanks.

[@angiewillsonarte]

Great example - like how you do lines instead of blocks - faster and easier. Your paintings on the wall are absolutely amazing! Thank you for helping us new to painting....thanks so much for sharing !

This is the best color mixing video I have ever seen. It caters to my more scientific mind.

Thank you, Ellen. They are hard, but your tutorial resulted in the best peony I’ve tried yet. Love your talent.

[@jeanneduncan3522]

Thank you 🙏🏻 so much. Finally, I’ve found someone who explains this method so well. I now ‘get’ it. I’m a beginner and was very confused.

[@stephaniebates4435]

This was so, so helpful to get me going on mixing my watercolors. Before this I was totally confused. Thank you so much Alek. - Stephanie

I agree. This video is pure gold. Thanks Alek. You make it look so simple. Your mastery clearly shows in this tutorial.

[@FirstLast-po8oz]

I always prefer your videos. there are so many watercolor videos on YT now, but you were one of the first and helped me out when I was first starting. :)

[@mizquilter]

Thank you, Alex, for a concise way to mix colors. I liked how I could take my chart and locate the color I'm looking from my freshly made swatches! I'm glad you mentioned not to add water after I start. I would have!

[@OkieSketcher1949]

I have added a new palette to my bag and am in the process of swatching it out. I ran into your video and found it rather interesting, a new way to see what one can get from the paints one already has. After all the classes I have taken and all the videos I have watched, I have never seen this technique. I think it is far easier to put together and provides a broader picture of what one can achieve. Thank you for this. I am going to try it as a different way to ascertain what paints I need to use to get a color I do not have.

[@susanrgreetdanielsen4826]

Thank you. One of the most sensible colour mixing charts I've seen. I'm going to try it...(but might add a couple more colours!) Tusen takk. Sue i Oslo

[@thedomes1]

Exactly what I needed! Brilliantly explained. And I won't forget the book.

[@cathyintally]

Oh my! I wish I had found you before I purchased all the colors which I will never use. I also spent a ton of money when I only needed 9 colors. I will def buy your book. Thank you!!!!
