Hi everyone! Today's youtube video is all about how to make a color study focused on one color: quinacridone magenta! I post youtube videos here for my patreon members so you can watch them ad free.

Color studies like this are so helpful because it allows you to mix one color with every color on your palette to a grater degree, seeing every combination and possible value.

I hope you enjoy! Let me know if you have any questions

I can do this for daaaays! Just did yellows this past weekend and need to do magenta now.

Lori Aragon

Thank you! I adore color : ) I've never thought to do a color study on one color only with what I have in my palette. Great job!

Renee

Thank you, Kristin! This is fascinating. I am very new to watercolor and I can see that this project would really help me learn how to mix colors and get a grasp of what colors go together.

Sanne van der Veen

This was fun and informative for me, thanks Kristin!

Kristin Van Leuven

Yes I love just studying one color. Now I have to do my whole palette haha

Lori Aragon

My whole palette 😂🎨. You are such a great resource to help us newbies along the way. Thanks! 💕

Laura Curley

I love the flesh tones you get when mixed with raw sienna!

Bear Raeb Barrett

Hahah I started out really well and then I just got lost in making new colors hahaha and I was like well dang I was suppose to be doing this all in order hahaha I made about 15 different greens. And I haven’t a clue what’s in any of them lol love my new colors. Now I need to work on water control

Kimberly Early

That’s so interesting to see all the different colors you can get. I don’t have magenta so what other color would be equivalent? I use DeVinci paints.

Kristin Van Leuven

Do you have any pink shades or alizarin crimson? Add a little red to your pinks and they’re closer to magenta

Gayle Frediani

This was an amazing learning experience! Not only did it help me understand my colors/undertones better, but it really helped with my water control. Nice!!!

Gayle Frediani

What is another color you recommend to do with a color study? I learned so much from this one, I’d like to do another!

Toni South

I've done something like this before. Maybe in a full chart with more colors. But this is so much better with one color at a time.

Kristin Van Leuven

sometimes it's nice to just single out a color and see how far it goes

Toni South

I would pick one of the blues. You would get some beautiful purples and some greens.

Toni South

I end up with a lot of greens when I paint and ones I like I save them. That's why I work off 2 different pallets and maybe only clean parts if it.

Toni South

Me too. I love mixing colors.

Sara Huestis

Stupid question: is there a point to doing color studies? I think they're beautiful as they are, but is there a reason for doing them? Do you ever refer back to them? Thanks!

Kristen. Can you increase your volume some? I am a bit hard of hearing and although late to the party wish to do the 100 tiny paintings and watch all your other videos. I am having a terrible time hearing you because your voice falls off at times and overall the volume is Very soft. Thank you for considering this.

Kristin Van Leuven

I have them in a small binder with clear protective pages. It helps me keep them safe but still accessible
