Thank you. Solved my problem which always trioubled me in my paintings. Always ended up with greens, orange browns and all sorts of colours without hitting on the right one!!!! The trouble is only with that sort of colour this happens cos I've never heard of that.

Very glad to hear that Joe! Yes - these are exactly the problems that can happen when mixing dark yellow! Happy this video was helpful.

Two questions: 1.) aren’t you really mixing, in succession from cadmium: a naples yellow, yellow ochre, raw sienna or golden ochre and ultimately a raw umber? (Neutralizing and darkening the original yellow as you add Dioxazine) and 2.) isn’t it more chemically unstable to add opposite colors together (like yellow and purple) than it would be to add or use these other earth yellows to effect the same changes? I believe it’s Max Doerner who goes into great depth about that common problem in modern painting and how often the colors turn grey over time as pigments settle. I’m fairly sure that’s why the palettes of painters like Corot included all those “earthy” iterations of yellow. For example, if it’s true that darkening any number of reds can be done by adding van dyke brown than why add viridian?

Hello Lane, Apologies for my delayed reply. Thank you for sharing your thoughts! The answer to your first question is yes and no. When mixing the opposite color (in this case purple) to yellow you are not getting just a more brownish yellow - the yellow retains more of its vibrancy and yellowness than if you were to just mix in a vandyke brown to it. If you only mute a color by mixing in browns - you will end up rather brownish muted colors that limit the kinds of colors you can use. By no means is mixing in purple the only way to mute yellow but it is the way for yellow to retain more of its 'yellowness' in muted form than if one were to mix in brown. I think it is helpful to use both methods to allow for mixing a wide range of different kinds muted colors. So, the reason for not just adding van dyke brown to darken a red is that you want to be able to create a variety of different kinds of dark reds - whatever situation you find yourself in you will need a specific type of dark red. It is very important to use high quality paints - this will help preserve the pigment in your painting. Also, substituting colors like Alizarin Crimson that aren't as permanent for those with greater permanence is a good step forward. I hope that is helpful!

Please tell me about the palette you are using ?

It is a wooden palette by Jack Richeson. I put about 5 layers of linseed oil over it to seal it before using it.
