I thought I must be sickening for something. My new paints arrived yesterday, and I hadn't even opened them! This is so not like me, I'm an "out of the shop and into the window" girl. Today I thought I would do something useful and make an oil paint mixing chart to help me make colour choices when I do get going with the painting again. I really enjoy oil painting outside on location where firstly the fumes can escape easily, and secondly I have some inspiration in front of me - I don't know about you, but I'm hopeless at painting things straight out of my head! I'm fairly new to oil painting and don't have a lot of colours. These are what I already had. Rowney (pre Daler) Georgian: French Ultramarine Sap Green Yellow Ochre Lemon Yellow Lamp Black Titanium White Burnt Sienna Crimson Daler Rowney Georgian: Burnt Umber W&N Artists: Olive Green and my three new colours are Daler Rowney Georgian: a delicious Vermilion, Cadmium Yellow and Coeruleum To make my mixing chart I took a pre-prepared gesso primed piece of A5 card. I then took my palette (a very high tech old ice cream carton lid) squirted out some colours, systematically mixed them with my palette knife, and put labelled blobs on a card. I didn't need to use too much paint, this is after all just a mixing guide. To each mixed colour I added white in a blob to the right. As well as creating a pastel shade, this will help me to distinguish between all the different darks that I made. And what do you know, I was inspired to carry on and paint this sunset scene.

I thought I would be able to mix one from my new red and my new blue, but if I had applied colour theory correctly I would have realised that Vermilion (a yellow leaning red) and Coeruleum (a yellow leaning blue) would mix into a dark browny/purple - we all know that red + blue + yellow = brown don't we?? Can anyone recommend a good all purpose purple oil colour?
