Watercolor Mixing - Deep Explanation

[@Papershredderrr]

You know what's even better than a cotton cloth? One of those synthetic fabrics you use to clean your car. It's usually yellow and comes in a tube, kind of squishy when wet. Even a little piece of that thing absorbs so much, you won't need a big one.

Oh that’s nice to know, I might try this soon

i wanted to start painting in February and I ultimately decided to go into watercolour painting because of you Nitin. Thank you for your lovely videos. Also i found that using 2 jars of water is practical as i can use one for cleaning my brush (and get it very dirty) and the second for mixing with my colours (and have it always clean).

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

Thank you so much watching my videos, I am glad that my effort is working for many beginners to start learning watercolor .

[@claudeduranton6792]

Dear Sir, a big thank you for this tutorial and for all the precedents that also closely and daily accompany my beginnings in watercolor painting. This tutorial about mixing is very realistic and answers some basic questions for the beginner that I am. Despite your superior level, you know how to put yourself within the reach of novices and it's really great - please continue, thank you in advance. Claude from France.

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

Thank you so much your encouraging words, these words gives me strength bcz it’s really hard to publish videos

[@ivart817]

I'm really digging your art station setup Nitin. Not until the beginning of this video did I see a good view of it. I love the paper backer and you strapped a tripod to your frame! I'm going to setup something similar for myself soon. Thank you for inspiring my art!

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

Thank you so much and my best wishes

[@amexjam55]

wonderful tutorial. well explained. ty

[@michelleflick1937]

Thank you very much for this helpful advice. And I have purchased the book, "The Miracle Morning" that you recommended. I have been using two glass jars for the water which works well, and using long-handled brush with a Terry mop on the end which easily gets the sludge color off the bottom and sides of the jar.

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

That’s great, my best wishes

[@Ssalerno51]

Love you and your work, Nitin! Your tutorials and classes are super inspirational and fun to learn from. Keep up the good work!!!

Thank you so much

Thank you for sharing 🙏

[@saviogomes1622]

Hello Nitin, please use a porcelain palette. Your color becomes a bead whenever you mix. With porcelain palette you will be able to retain the mixed colors longer

[@ashokkelkar272]

Explained very nicely .

[@aizkim]

Thank you for sharing. This is very useful.

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

Thank you so much

[@Carmel明慧]

Your videos are beautiful and inspiring, thank you for sharing your gift with others, Nitin! I am wondering if you might have any video about how you keep your brushes clean?

[@art_julio_lancis]

Good content good video friend 👍 👌

[@a_lone_wonderer]

Great explanation, it would be much more helpful for beginners, if you give us some idea about what kind of paper to use, like the thickness or the making of the paper and also the type of brush to use.

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

That’s really nice suggestion, I will look into into for my future project

[@a_lone_wonderer]

@@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings thanks, will be much appreciated.

[@drawingwithyusuf]

This explains how to mix water and paint - then brush application techniques on the media, right? Very useful 🎨

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

Yes you got it, though there are several other way to do this. But in this video I’m explaining most easiest way to understand this. I will look into those in later videos

[@pavanmpib]

Much needed aspect for beginners.. But I disagree on 2 things.. 1. Colors mixing on paper has a beauty by itself.. mixing many on palette has high chances of muddiness.. 2. You need to suggest to use a seperate clean water bowl. Dirty water to pick color for beginners isn't a good thing to teach. 👍

[@iqbalpreetpadam7521]

Thanks sir for lessons

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

Thank you

[@marylabrec2728]

Just what I needed to know. Thank you!. I need a pallet like yours. Can you provide the name of it?😊

[@WanderlassS]

I love the tree 🌳

[@alaindezii4445]

Very helpful Mr. Singh. Do you paint on a level surface or do you tilt your paper? Thank you.

[@sirjackjackal1042]

If I’m urban sketching is there any way I can use more compact watercolor palettes and water containers and still make it work?

[@mapleleafs9926]

What water colors do you use ? Can you recommend any brand

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

I’m using Camlin product. Daniel smith or mission gold are among good colors

[@Silverhorizons]

@@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings which is best camlin 18 shades or 24 shades?

[@subhankarmondal7835]

Do you use synthetic brush Sir?

[@qulip119]

Sir what watercolor paper should one use for practicing watercolors daily?

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

Any paper which is cost effective :) i am using chitrapath papers

[@Silverhorizons]

@@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings where do you get these papers?

[@rajendrasbihomeloan4918]

How make shadows which can use with mix color

[@vinayg9261]

[@joannad8630]

Can you please suggest a watercolor artist based in mumbai from whom I can learn this art?!

[@annettesullivan9155]

What is your color?palette

[@scarz1951]

I have the typical question. What are the colors on your palette? I was able to figure out most of them. No light yellow. Is that thal o and ultramarine blue? Cad red and a crimson or is it purple? Its helpful to know which colors used during a vid on mixing.

[@WanderlassS]

scarz1951 certain: Yellow ochre, burnt sienna, ultramarine blue guess: green, medium yellow, cobalt blue, basic orange

[@thefugitive7773]

Mixing colors on paper bring a lot of variation of colors and values way better than mixing on the pallet. Sorry I don’t agree with you this time.

[@pedronomarz1920]

No se entendió nada amigo, y tu mesa de trabajo es poco prolija, trabajas sobre papeles manchados..

[@NitinSinghwatercolorpaintings]

Gracias :)

[@DiriuX]

Habla por ti amigo, a mi me sirvió mucho

[@aldoaugustoaldana1953]

Se entendió perfectamente bien , deberías estar agradecido con el maestro Nitin, que nos brinda una oportunidad entender este arte sobre una base real y simple muy común en nuestras mesas de trabajo , para mi fue muy útil esta lección y gratis .

[@ratulsarkar8972]

Dude you got to put your camera over the painting, or else the whole video will be a waste
