10 Tips in 10 Days – A Well Rounded Palette
I often have students asking me what colors to put on their watercolor palette. I like to have a well rounded palette so that Each color on the color wheel is represented.
I designed a kit with Daniel Smith Art Supplies called the Jacqueline Newbold Watercolor Traveling Kit. It is a perfect way for beginning watercolor artists to fill their color palette. This kit has it all (just add a pencil!). I picked 12 colors, one for every color on the color wheel, my favorite folding palette, several brushes, a zippered case and an Arches watercolor journal. This would be the perfect companion to go with with my new DVD, Art Journals-On-the-Go. You will be able to create beautiful, colorful paintings with the colors I recommend!
