Curious About Color Mixing? Here Are the Basics You Need to Know
- Add a dark pigment to light colors.
- When darkening a color, avoid using black. To create a more nuanced color, try adding ultramarine blue or burnt umber instead.
- Skip using black altogether. Mix them in equal parts to make a rich, beautiful black. When mixed with white, it makes a great gray.
- To make a color look “cool,” add blue. To make it appear warmer, try incorporating yellows or reds.
