tweaking a Demi Palette

Trying out new combinations of colors is the main reason I love Pocket Palettes. With magnets holding the pans of paint, it is so easy to change my mind!

After putting together a new combo in this Demi Palette to go with the Shire Blue watercolor I just bought, I tried a quick landscape (Making imaginary scenes is hard for me; I just roughly painted something seen online). Then decided the warm yellow and phthalo blue were just wrong for me.

So those were switched out for two others — I know I can mix the browns but it’s so much easier to start mixes with transparent red oxide! I tried another landscape, this time in my tiny sketchbook (which I found out was not so good working wet-in-wet!). I think I like working with these colors.
