A basic palette ww

handprint.com is a simply amazing respository of information about watercolour painting, paper, paints and brushes. It also contains extensive information on historical and modern colour theory, colour palettes, additive and subtractive colour mixing and the work of artists running alongside the historical development of painting and its media.

Featured here are reformatted versions of some of the sections of the website to facilitate easier reading and further study. There will also be MS Word versions for easier printing when I can work out the technicalities of making them available here.

Otherwise check out Bruce's original site at:
