Swatches comparison of basics and Liquitex professional acrylic paint

I have been working on a softer unified color palette. What are your favorite colors?

Then I browsed Pinterest Trends to see what colors are or will be on trend. I feel like, since I paint flowers and how beautiful nature is, color is an important way to express that.

Oh, I mixed up lovely cool blues and Throwback kid colors. My pinks and peaches would be beautiful for the doilies and lace motif. My palette covers three trends. I have been learning to combine trends with my flower painting style to create unique motifs.

I wanted to continue exploring color mixing with professional heavy-body acrylic paint.

Wow, both Basics and Professional paint mix up beautiful colors. I did add Ultramine Blue and Deep Turquoise to the professional paint, which created the greens I love.

Master’s Touch is another brand of student-grade paint that I started using and love! I have lots of paper and a new journal. I am excited for all the new ideas that will come! The first one I have is painting a cool blue dreamy field of blue wildflowers. With little pink flowers? Yes!

If you are interested in purchasing any of the colors, you can do so here.

Thanks for being here.
