Acrylic Color Mixing: Secondary Colors Made Easy

Wow, sooo talented. I'm a fan of colour so this was GREAT! So relaxing too to watch you do this!

Thanks for making this so easy to understand! Can't wait to mix vibrant secondary colors with acrylic paint!

This is very helpful. I never know this before. Thank you sooo much for sharing

I always love watching your videos and I learn so much about color every time so thank you!

Thanks this was helpful, yes golden is a better brand.

I teach elementary art - mixed paint to make orange and green with ease. The kids were so impressed! Then I mixed red and blue - got brown! After that I bought purple until I tried mixing magenta instead of red.

i expected this to have at least 100k views, super helpful thnx!

First time watching your channel and videos- really well done- love those color overlays lol. Great explanation- and I cannot mix green for the life of me lol.

You are such a sweetheart! Best lessons and to the point and not boring…being 69 years old, I need that😂!! Warm greetings from Canada!

FYI to viewers - unfortunately Golden no longer makes Hansa Yellow Medium or Hansa Yellow Light (just wanted to let you know if you were having trouble looking for them). I know that Laurel has recommended Liquitex Cadmium Free Yellow Medium and Cadmium Free Yellow Light as well (I know this from taking her painting course a while back) so those will probably be good substitutes for the ones she's using in this video. :)

Great info thank you! I'm interested to know if the opacity/transparency of a colour would affect the mix you get? So would a transparent red mixed with an opaque yellow give a similar result to an opaque red and a transparent yellow? Hopefully I'm making sense?

Hi Laurel. Big fan of your content. We don’t know each other but I thought I had been messaging you for over a month. Turns out it was a Nigerian guy who has stolen a lot of your pics and videos. Wanted you to be aware. Kind regards, Mark

Finally a clear understandable way to make color charts. Thank you so much

Do you have trouble mixing green, orange, and purple? Tell me in a comment below!
