Hi, I'm Sue Rose with Expert Village and today we're talking about mixing colors. We've mixed the others of our primary and secondary colors so now we're doing our yellow. So, I'm going to dip my paint brush here in the yellow, I'm going to rinse my brush, and then I'm going to take a little of my French red and dip it into the yellow and here is just another orange that I've come up with that's different from anything else I have on the page. I'm going to take my yellow again and I'm going to put just a dab of my green in with that yellow. And here's another green that I've come up with that lighter and more chartreuse than any of the others. I'll take that yellow again, put a little dab, rinse my brush, and mix it with a little of the blue, there it is, and here is another green that is darker than the one before but a nice kind of cool green. I will take my yellow and I will take my orange and I will mix a little more of the yellow and a little bit more of the orange and here is yet another orange that I've come up with. And I will go back and I will mix my yellow with the purple here, little more yellow, and here is yet another color. So, here's the difference, the green, the blue, the orange, and the purple and the red that I get when I mix my yellow. Stay tuned for our conclusion on how to mix your primary and secondary colors.
