{"product_id":"walter-foster-color-mixing-recipes-for-oil-and-acrylic","title":"Color Mixing Recipes for Oil and Acrylic","description":"\u003cp\u003eMixing paint by intuition works until you need to recreate that perfect shadow tone or match a specific hue weeks later. This reference eliminates guesswork with documented recipes for over 450 color combinations, from subtle earth tones to vibrant chromatic mixtures. William F. Powell's formulas specify exact proportions, two parts cadmium yellow to one part burnt sienna, so you can reproduce results consistently across sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wire-o binding lets the book lie completely flat beside your palette, keeping both hands free for mixing while recipes stay visible and protected from paint splatter. Each combination shows the finished color alongside its component pigments and mixing ratios, working equally well for oils and acrylics. The included Color Mixing Grid provides a visual measuring guide for accurate proportions, particularly helpful when scaling recipes up for larger passages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond basic combinations, Powell includes techniques for creating atmospheric effects, flesh tones, and landscape colors, practical applications that connect mixing theory to actual painting problems. The hardcover format withstands studio conditions better than loose cards that inevitably get paint-smudged or misplaced. Keep this within arm's reach of your palette, and that exact green you mixed last month becomes repeatable rather than a lucky accident.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Walter Foster","offers":[{"title":"each","offer_id":48102231113957,"sku":"50510","price":8.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/walter-foster-color-mixing-recipes-for-oil-and-acrylic","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
