I use two small containers with solvent. It cleans better faster

Another fantastic demonstration Malcolm. A lot of important information in it. The idea of using separate brushes for lights and darks, that is a great tip. Colour is such a big subject, so much in it. But your videos help cut through the difficulties, they are the best I have seen on the I/net (I have seen quite a few artists demos too).

Thanks Malcolm, there’s a lot of excellent tips here for me to practice . Now in reference to the last tip, ie. adding highlights with thick paint after the paint has settled, would I have to add more white or more yellow or….to create the highlight? That is my biggest problem. I find adding white dulls the colour. Thanks
