Gradient Mix

I actually like the colour mix mixture of the orange yellow and greens — you simply need to watch out when combining or mixing the orange subsequent to inexperienced as they’re each “secondary” colours and when mixed they turn into a “mud” color– or in different phrases, brown.  That’s the reason having a yellow in between works as a form of “bridge” and prevents the mud impact.  I clarify lots of these coloration mixing guidelines and suggestions in my Clay Shade System.

So listed here are the recipes for these 5 colours utilizing Kato clay.  Once more, two of the colours are a really shut match to earlier Pantone colours and I’ve supplied a hyperlink to these unique recipes.
