How to KEEP TRACK of Watercolor Colors 🎨

Do you ever lose track of what colours you have used in which wells of your palette? It makes it really difficult if you run out of a particular mix. Anyway, it doesn't happen to me any more, and this little video shares my secret on how I overcame the problem.

Great advice Paul! Writing the mixes down along with a swatch also permits you to step away for an extended period and then pick up where you left off.

[@TheDevonArtist]

That's as you know precisely why I do this, at least you can keep re-mixing the colours after a break from the painting. I do have a habit of forgetting the mixes otherwise! Lol

[@robertswift4678]

I've discovered there's a difficult line to tread: My desires & appetite to paint often exceed my endurance. The trick is knowing when to set the brush down and have a beer...or 2. My biggest worry tho, when having to leave my work for more than a couple days, is losing hard won abilities I've developed thru your mentorship.

[@TheDevonArtist]

I don't think you will ever lose the abilities Robert, we just get a little rusty. Lol @robertswift4678
