Colour & Mixing Guide

A practical guide to understanding colour relationships, mixing cleaner colours, and creating harmonious palettes.

About this guide

This Colour & Mixing Guide was created to take the confusion out of colour theory and turn it into something you can actually use while painting.

Instead of overwhelming theory, you’ll find simple explanations, visual examples, and practical swatches that help you understand how colours behave when they meet on paper.

The goal is not to memorise rules, but to train your eye, so you can start mixing with intention, confidence, and control.

Whether you’re just starting with watercolour or you want to refine your colour decisions, this guide is designed to support your practice every time you sit down to paint.

Download it, keep it open while you work, and come back to it whenever your colours don’t behave the way you expect.
