Plan the palette from your shelf
The fewest tubes you own that can mix this picture, how much of each to squeeze out, and a ground to tone the canvas.
A teacher behind you
Photograph the canvas, line up your grid, and hear cell by cell where the value or colour drifted. Lamplight is absorbed; blank canvas is never blamed.
Check the mix through a gray card
Target and dab read through the same white-balance correction and meet in ΔE2000, with the tube to add.
Four block-ins and an outline
By value, by colour, by light and shadow, or warm against cool. An outline to trace, printed tiled at canvas size.
Pencils and markers, properly
Closest pencil, two to layer in the right order, pressure guidance. Prismacolor, Polychromos, Luminance, Copic, Ohuhu.
13,000 colours, 130 lines
Winsor & Newton, Golden, Liquitex, Schmincke, Daniel Smith, Old Holland, Michael Harding and more — plus your own custom tubes.
