That is because purple and orange are sort of caddy corner across the color wheel. I would not use this in my daily art journal pages as I like more primary, bold colors in my work! I sometimes struggle to make a nice brown paint, but this one worked great. Probably because it was mostly blue green is blue and yellow , purple is blue and red so there is a lot blue, some yellow and some red in that mix!
It made a periwinkle color that was deeper than lavender but still lighter than a regular purple! Awesome for making dark purple, luxury purple! I tried mixing purple with black to get dark purple , but it just overwhelmed the color and made black!
I have gotten a bunch of different question about mixing purple with other colors! Here are some of the best…. Black mixed with purple just makes black. Navy mixed with purple makes a really pretty rich dark purple color! If you start with purple, you could add some red and a titch more navy to get a darker plum purple.
If you add light blue, you will get a lavender color. If you add purple and dark blue navy you will get a deep, rich dark purple. Blue and red are essential to creating purple, but you can mix in other colors to create different shades of purple.
Adding white, yellow, or gray to your mixture of blue and red will give you a lighter purple. Incorporating black into your blue and red mixture will give you a darker shade of purple. By adding additional colors to green paint, you can create another color.
It is from the the three primary colors, red, yellow and blue, that all other colors are made. Green, orange and violet, are the three secondary colors, which are made by mixing together two primary colors. Yellow and green color mix make a Lime color. The three primary colors in additive mixing are red, green, and blue. In the absence of color or, when no colors are showing, the result is black.
If all three primary colors are showing, the result is white. Mix two parts violet color food coloring with three parts lemon yellow. This combination produces a moss green color which you can use to make icing for cake. What color does black and green make? Either a hunter green, or an army green depending on the green you mix with black. Now, what about that Violet and Green make Blue thing?
It actually all started when I had hiked a very long, steep hike down to paint at a waterfall and realized I had left my yellow in the car. I had accidentally pulled out transparent orange instead. I did, however, have some cadmium green light with me also an accident. It dawned on me and I suddenly felt stupid for not thinking of it earlier in my development that orange has yellow and green has yellow so it makes sense that if you mix them together you will get a form of neutral yellow.
That, of course, lead to making blue from green and violet and red from orange and violet. Once I got back to the studio, I began playing with getting more intense versions of these colors.
Everything is just the right saturation for me. The automatic neutralizing that happens from the small amounts of other primaries in the two colors seems perfect. Truly, there is more than one way to mix a color! AFTER you are comfortable mixing all of your colors with just the three primaries and white, try some of these experiments.
All of these are Gamblin colors. Cadmium Green Light and Transparent or Indian Yellow plus a little white a beautiful yellow that is not as harsh as a primary yellow. Now, what would happen if you replaced your primary colors with these mixed red, yellow, and blue colors?
Well, your painting would certainly be almost completely neutral. Once you break a color beyond a certain step, it has moved further and further into the center of neutral on the color wheel. But keep on bending and you find you are coming back out the other side again.
