Mixing Colors For A Primary Color Scheme

Painting with a limited palette of primary colors helps us to understand color better because we’re limited to the 3 basic colors that all other colors come from. It helps us make better color decisions as well as make subtle color changes that we need in our painting.

I loved the energy of the colours in their dance with the light. Brilliant bit of work!

Thanks for this one Phil. I enjoyed watching your process. I am going to try to do the same with the three primaries.

Always enjoy watching your decision making when you paint Phil. At 3:35 you say "you could extend that out and get 6 or so new colors, plus add white and that would be new colors also". Wouldn't adding white just make it a new value in the same color family and not necessarily a new color? Sometimes wording when talking about color can become slightly confusing. I think I know what you meant, but just clarifying for my own sake.
