A good colour guide to avoid wasting paint during Covid lockdown
I wrote a more detailed review on the general colour mixing book which I also bought. I wanted to avoid wasting paint after several muddy experiments, as an amateur. I can buy materials on line but find this is is useful to get quicker to the result I want. I enjoy landscapes and so far have used this for mountain colours, sky recipes and some foliage. If you enjoy landscape I would recommend this. It is not complicated to use if you follow the instructions though I probably use if 50% by simply looking at the colour swatches for a match I like. I have for example looked up magnolia trees/flowers for specific recipes, when painting blossom.

Great Value for money.
I have a few of these books now and find them very helpful for mixing my paints. They have a colour mixing grid in the back, which is useful. Great little spiral bound books for a great price. I would highly recommend them to all.

A working document
It is a reference book, a catalogue of colours mixes, explanations and tips which I shall use didactically for many years to come.

A very easy to use book to take around with you that can save you some time(and paint). Only problem is you might not have some of the colours used in the book but an experienced artist will easily get around that using other colours.

I had high hopes for this book and I love the quality (look and feel) of it and the spiral binding. I just feel that as I use a limited palette (2 reds, 2 yellows, 2 blues plus yellow ochre, burnt umber, black and white) and mix everything up from those, this book doesn't work as well as it might for me. I don't want to buy all the colours dictated by the writer (26 in total!) but I'm not sure how effective it will be without doing so.

Awesome book; awesome order experience
Once one reads through the instructions for how the book is set up, following the color recipes is easy. I love having the clear color-mixing grids to guide me as I create my colors. I also loved the color-theory pages for review (never hurts to review what one thinks she knows). I'd been wanting this book for a long time. I found a used "Like New" copy for a reasonable price, so I ordered it. I got it sooner than I was told to expect it; the condition was, in fact, like new and, except for the mildly dented top corners and top edge of the spine, could've been new for the next-to-none wear it shows. The book was wrapped before it was put into a bubble-wrap mailer, so the book arrived undamaged from shipping. Finally, there was a sweet note inside the envelope from the volunteers who work to sell and ship books from this seller, asking buyers to give them a positive review if our service was worthy of it. Mine was--and thank you to those who worked to get this book to me. Happy I purchased the book, and happy I purchased it from these sellers.

Very usefull
I can quickly find suitable color mixes for e.g. a certain tree, grass, sky, etc. Good index for different color sets. The structure of the book is durable and easy to keep clean.
