Thank you. I love swatching videos and color chart videos. I also swatch my colors and do mixes on the opposite page. However, I need a video on creating a chart that goes on the diagonal. I get so, so mixed up!!

Very clever and pretty colors. Hugs dear one.

I love colour mixing charts. I usually start just with choosing my 3 primaries or 6 split primaries which gives me a good base to use for colour matching. I often do colour studies, choosing one primary and mixing varying levels of another colour(s). I'm always amazed what colours you can achieve.
