The book suggests doing 6 of these color triangles... my travel palette only had the colors needed for this one. She suggests one of 'liftable' colors, Aureloin, rose madder, cobalt blue. One of 'sedimentary' colors cadmium yellow, cadmium red and Fr. Ultramarine Blue. One of 'staining' colors Quin Gold, Alizarin Crimson, and Thalo blue. The 'earth' colors are above Raw Sienna, Burnt Sienna and Paynes Grey. Opaque colors, Naples Yellow, Indian Red, and Cerulean Blue. Finally 'printers' colors Cadmium lemon yellow, perm. rose, peacock blue.

  1. I really like the color you get from mixing the sienna and the gray. Don't know what to mix for the copper patina of that egret sculpture, but this particular color makes me think of bronzes.
