Mixing Warm and Cool Colors with Oil Paint

With color mixing, temperature is key. In this video, I’ll show you how to mix warm primaries and cool primaries to produce “clear” or “dirty” secondary colors. Using cool and warm colors strategically is how I achieve luminous color in my own paintings. Consider taking my online course Practical Color Application for Painters for a more in-depth look at the process. And remember: when you start a painting to have "0% expectations and 100% kindness for yourself."
