Unlocking Color Secrets: Mixing & Painting with Burgundy & Brown

​

Discover the magic of color mixing in this art journaling tutorial! In this video, I explore a beautiful burgundy and brown color palette using Blick Matte Acrylics in my Dina Wakley Ledger Art Journal.

On one page, I experiment with custom color mixing, swatching different shades with black and white to create a rich, earthy palette. Then, I bring those colors to life on the opposite page with a layered abstract painting, incorporating mark-making, stencils, and expressive brushwork.

Whether you're new to color mixing or looking for fresh inspiration for your art journal pages, this video will guide you through the process. Grab your paints and let's create together!

Looking for the supplies I used? I’ve listed all my favorite and most-used materials on one easy-to-update page here: https://2lilowls.com/favorite-supplies-for-mixed-media-abstract-art/

(Some of the links are affiliate links. If you use my link, I get a small commission, which will go toward my art supplies and to support this channel! I appreciate your support!!)

Note: I don’t list individual supply links on every post any longer, simply because keeping up with that for each video or project took more time than I have. Instead, I’ve created one easy-to-browse page where I’ve listed all my favorite and most-used art supplies. It’s always up to date, and a great place to find what I’m working with most often.
