Palette Preparation

I’m big on the importance of understanding color theory, but equally so, I’m really big on palette preparation before starting a painting.

I have lots of notebooks that I use to test my colors and then when I’ve decided on my palette, I keep records of the colors that I use in each painting.  It comes in handy when a collector tells me they want me to paint a landscape with the same colors in another one of my c paintings. 

I’m so proud of my students who take the time to test their colors instead of just jumping into their work, and then becoming disappointed in their results.

Below is a recipe for success. This painting is comprised of just three colors: a red, a yellow, and a blue.  You can mix just about anything from those three primary colors.  You can get beautiful greys, stunning greens, brilliant purples and so on.

I hope this helps you on your painting journey!  Want to receive my blogs in your email?  Please sign up on the right side. - Jill Saur
