3-Colour Watercolour: 30 Colour-Mixing Masterpieces by Katie Putt

30 sweet and simple watercolour projects for beginners gain confidence in colour mixing using just 3 colours at a time!

Artist Katie Putt, New Designers'One to Watch' (London, 2019), guides you through simple step-by-step instructions for 30 mini-masterpieces.Each of the 10 chapters in this book is based around a different 3-colour palette, from jewel brights to Scandi calm. You'll need just 3 'pure' paint colours to make a start. From these, you will learn how to mix a surprising range of different colours - every hue you'll need to complete the 3 easy-to-follow watercolour projects in each chapter, which range fromanimals, flowers and plants to baked goods and more.

By working with 3-colour palettes, you'll get to know each different colour of paint intimately. You'll gain an understanding of how different colours interact when mixed or layered, and you'll become a pro when it comes to the different characteristics of dark and light washes. By the time you've completed the projects in this book, you'll have a sixth sense for colour.

All 30 projects contains tips and simple instructions throughout, and each of the 10 sections is supplemented with generously sized colour charts to make colour matching super simple.

This is the perfect book for beginners as well as more developed artists who want to play around with more limited colour designs to truly gain an understanding of their paints.
