So I have resumed doing the color charts from Schmid's book. This one has Cobalt Blue Light as the dominant color, and mixing against the following colors: cad lemon, cad yellow pale, cad yellow deep, yellow ochre, cad red medium. terra rosa, alizarin crimson, transparent oxide red, viridian, ultramarine blue. However, I use light oxide red instead of terra rosa, because I cannot get terra rosa at the local art store. I am drawn to this palette more so than the cad yellow series. It has a mysterious, dark and calming quality which I like. It is only doing charts like this that I see just how many different kinds of green and purple and blue can be created. It is wonderful.
