I had been having trouble mixing, blending colors just right for years. I would take my sweet, long time to be sure that the color or shade I wanted was just right. If I had not taken my sweet time and messed up I would have been so very unhappy. I know for sure this book will help relieve that stress from me as I continue to practice. Even if you are well taught in mixing and shading in watercolor, this is still a worthy guide just in case the process skipped your mind or skill. ### ⭐⭐ Watercolor Paint Guide *by P***Y on Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2008* The concept of this book is interesting. However, the color reproductions are not that good after I conducted my own experiments with the same Winsor Newton pigments and that is how I based my rating.The format showing 1 pigment mixed with several others is a useful guide, but putting it into practice on your own is necessary to really see the results.Moira Clinch's 2 watercolor swatch books are a bit more useful and differently formatted. Clinch's Walter Foster published book has better reproductions, Watercolor Mixing Directory.If you are a watercolorist seeking to learn more about pigment mixing this book and others like it are useful for mixing ideas. However, to learn more about pigments Michael Wilcox and Hilary Page's books on pigments are 2 of the best references to use as guides to learn about pigment properties. ### ⭐⭐ One piece of advice *by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2011* Winsor & Newton's are among the kinds of paint I buy, and I was thinking, when purchasing their guide to mixing colours, since one can always learn more, that it would have some useful and even novel suggestions about possible combinations and their effects. I should have known better than to entertain such foolish expectations. There was, indeed, ONE excellent piece of advice--start with the lighter colour and add the darker to it--but as for the rest, I simply found the suggested combinations harsh and lacking in subtlety. The book uses only two colours for all its combinations and shades or tints the two from light to dark. The suggested mixing ratios were at times downright misleading, especially in the darker and more pigmented shades. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/4268969-acrylics-a-visual-reference-to-mixing-acrylic-colour-winsor-newton](https://www.desertcart.at/products/4268969-acrylics-a-visual-reference-to-mixing-acrylic-colour-winsor-newton) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
