The greatest difficulty in painting, regardless of the process used (watercolour, acrylic or oil), lies in the mixing of colours and their application. The correct handling of colour on the palette is an essential preliminary step in order to achieve a mastery of nuances, chromatic range and good harmonisation on the support; it requires a technical knowledge of colour blending and hours of practice until the painting is handled intuitively and impulsively. This book is an essential guide to learn how to relate the colours of the palette to those of the model and successfully resolve the different harmonisations and chromatic ranges that may arise.
