This leads to unsatisfying results…

Here is something you may not notice, that leads to unsatisfying results in your paintings.
Some primary color combos can be biased and not create a perfect gray.
Being aware of this allows you to be more accurate, if you wish to.

I like mixing my own grays. This was very informative. Thx.

Your style of watercolour painting is so different to mine, but i just love your enthusiasm for watercolour, and the way you explain your painting process.

It's fun to experiment mixing grays because there are so many. Your hair looks awesome 😂

Haha thank you 😁

one time I wanted to premix a pan of “as neutral as possible” gray with staining colors for monochrome underpaintings so it doesn’t lift and lose strength so easily. I had to settle with “dark blue, but close enough” Pg7+Pr122 mix :-)
There are better pigments of course to mix grays, but for this experiment I needed to use colors that are as staining as possible
