It was good a good experience to paint this second part. Exciting when you have to start making the page completely wet. Harriet, with your guide everyone can do it! Thank you so much for this tutorial 🥰😍

I love this but as I started to paint and add the payne’s grey to the golden mixture ( for the left side of the stairs) I ended up with green. Help, please!

de Winton Paper co.

essentially paynes grey is blue and golden misture is yellow so they can end up making green. Try for more ref tones somewhere in there either moonglow as a shadow, or some more umber or burnt sienna

Yes, I needed a bit more burnt sienna. It actually got better as I kept going. Thanks for replying. I’m going to try it again but doing it bigger as I think I might find the stairs and posts easier. Thanks again.
