Love this video!!! Teaching us about yellow & how to do a color study at the same time. I needed that. I'm a total newby with this stuff.

Jack... What watercolor do you use for cyan??

[@recoveringsoul755]

He did a colored pencil primaries for the Nature Journal Connection (brief 15-20 minutes videos) and for Prismacolors, it was True Blue. I remember in my set of 12 colors it was the only correct primary I had. I need to find that video and order the correct yellow and magenta. I noticed I can't make pink with what I have.

Oh he got into that here...

@@recoveringsoul755 Thank you... I don't use colored pencils often I was looking for the WATERCOLOR equivalent of Cyan. Did you catch that color? Thinking either Manganese or cobalt maybe?

@@sephanisbetart298 can't watch the whole thing right now. On his website he has a watercolor pallette he sells. Maybe it lists the exact colors in there? Or you could ask here. Like you have but I don't see him reply very often. Try asking Marley Pfifer (?) he uses Jacks pallette for his nature journaling.
