The 3 Colour Plein Air Challenge (Going Back to Watercolour BASICS) 🎨

#watercolourpainter #artist #artistlife

Swatching and colour mixing using just 3 basic colours. Red, yellow and blue.

➡️ All you need for plein air painting is 3 watercolours.
➡️ Comparing my 14 pan travel kit and a 3 pan plein air palette.
➡️ What is a cool palette and a warm palette?
➡️ Painting in the car.
➡️ Painting inspiration on the Cornish coast.

Join me in the studio where I will share with you how I learned to mix my own colours using a cool and warm palette and what those colours are. I will take you down to the Cornish coast where I did some sketching outside but had to retreat to the car to do some painting. I do 2 paintings, one using my reduced palette and one using my usual travel art kit.
