I thought I must be sickening for something. My new paints arrived yesterday, and I hadn't even opened them! This is so not like me, I'm an "out of the shop and into the window" girl. Today I thought I would do something useful and make an oil paint mixing chart to help me make colour choices when I do get going with the painting again. I really enjoy oil painting outside on location where firstly the fumes can escape easily, and secondly I have some inspiration in front of me - I don't know about you, but I'm hopeless at painting things straight out of my head! I'm fairly new to oil painting and don't have a lot of colours. These are what I already had. Rowney (pre Daler) Georgian: French Ultramarine Sap Green Yellow Ochre Lemon Yellow Lamp Black Titanium White Burnt Sienna Crimson Daler Rowney Georgian: Burnt Umber W&N Artists: Olive Green and my three new colours are Daler Rowney Georgian: a delicious Vermilion, Cadmium Yellow and Coeruleum To make my mixing chart I took a pre-prepared gesso primed piece of A5 card. I then took my palette (a very high tech old ice cream carton lid) squirted out some colours, systematically mixed them with my palette knife, and put labelled blobs on a card. I didn't need to use too much paint, this is after all just a mixing guide. To each mixed colour I added white in a blob to the right. As well as creating a pastel shade, this will help me to distinguish between all the different darks that I made. And what do you know, I was inspired to carry on and paint this sunset scene. Normality is restored! Sunset ACEO using Vermillion, Cad Yellow and Burnt Umber Click here to learn about ACEOs One thing I have noticed is that I don't have a decent purple. I thought I would be able to mix one from my new red and my new blue, but if I had applied colour theory correctly I would have realised that Vermilion (a yellow leaning red) and Coeruleum (a yellow leaning blue) would mix into a dark browny/purple - we all know that red + blue + yellow = brown don't we?? Can anyone recommend a good all purpose purple oil colour?
About The Artwork Colorful Abstract Landscape Painting, Original artwork created by Saroja van der Stegen. This is a one of a kind artwork, created and painted by me. I always sign my work on the front of each painting. This painting includes a certificate of authenticity. This artwork is painted with professional quality oil paint mainly using the pallet knife on stretched canvas on a wooden frame. This painting is painted in Majorca. It is inspired by the beautiful landscapes and seascapes of this island. By the mountain walks and the swimming in the deep sea. I love experimenting with colours, express my feelings, it is like music: expressing inner emotion, it does not need to represent the real world. I am always fascinated by nature, that is why you find elements of nature in my work. It is a spontaneous, emotional, vibrant creation. A play of colours. The canvas is framed in a floating painted wooden frame, skilful made with a natural structure and a light patina grey-greenish colour, which adapts to every interior. Ready to hang with a hook on the back. It will be packed in a specially made box from cardboard or hardboard and shipped secure and handled with the biggest care.

It seems like only yesterday when I started doing my Wednesday morning live paintings on Instagram. I would get nervous. I would stress about it each week. I had no idea how much I would come to look forward to this part of my week. I had no idea how many new friends I would make through this journe
