Just read your comment - yes, the same ...Hi, Jeff,<br /><br />Just read your comment - yes, the same 2 colours are mixed twice on the chart. BUT you're supposed to mix more of the colour in the rows, running down the page, than in the columns across the page. So, the balance of each is different. <br /><br />For example, in the first row, DS Hansa Yellow mixes with NG (New Gamboge), but more of the Hansa Yellow is used. In the next row, the DS New Gamboge is mixed with the HY column, but this time, the dominant colour is the DS New Gamboge. That is why there are shade differences when the same 2 colours are used on the grid.<br /><br />Think I'm right! Hope you get to read this. I am just starting out in watercolours!<br /><br />Cheers,<br />SabrinaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8941519150769362030.post-28562534820296105422011-05-21T11:17:11.506-07:002011-05-21T11:17:11.506-07:00Hi Susie

I then drew a diagonal line from the top left to the bottom right. Then I cut on the line leaving the bottom half. Just had to print the colours of the top row on the diagonal.<br /><br />Jeffve3cojhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05436088986903370857noreply@blogger.com
