Switching back to pastels today for painting outside. Oil paint is fun and all but man is it a huge time suck. Need to change it up.

@zedshaw I tend to paint with three, one for each tone, but that can expand really quickly.
@DianaProbst Do you mix with a brush? Do you pre-mix before painting?

@zedshaw I pre-choose my colours carefully, then I /tend/ to mix with a knife, but not always.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@zedshaw I don't pre-mix before the painting - as I often leave canvases overnight I need to be able to match anyhow. I mix to rules, tho'.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@zedshaw I ask myself if it's lighter/darker and hotter/colder. That gets me so close to the required colour that any difference is 'life'.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@zedshaw As I normally paint in the studio, I can have 3 knives in use. I /always/ reserve one for picking up white.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
