Exploring Color: Mixing & Painting in a Vintage Ledger

Join me as I dive into color mixing and abstract painting in my Dina Wakley Ledger! In this tutorial, I explore a beautiful limited palette using Yellow Orange Deep and Blue Violet Medium from the Blick Matte Paints line, along with black and white.

On one page, I experiment with color mixing to create a custom palette, and on the other, I bring those colors to life in an abstract painting with mark-making and stencils.

Whether you're new to color mixing or looking for fresh inspiration for your art journal, this video is packed with creative ideas. Grab your paints and let’s explore color together!
