Mixing Celedon and a GIVEAWAY
Mixing Celedon and a GIVEAWAY
[It has been pointed out to me that I have misspelled CELADON. Whoops! Very bad manners. I wont change it in the post or video; just humor me and my misspelling. (Thanks, Lucie).]
I get asked about this color pretty frequently. Celedon. Its a color from Blick Matte Acrylics, and it is only available in 2 oz bottles. I typically put four to six bottles of it in each Blick order. I recommend you do the same, so that they might consider offering it in the 8 oz size. However, you can mix your own, and get some variation and nuance to your taste:
This is the "piece" I made with the leftovers. |
This piece obviously relies heavily on this celedon range of color. This is an example in my Balancing Opposites composition course: balancing large areas with small elements. |
This is the GIVEAWAY!!! |
- 8 oz bottle of Black
- 8 oz bottle of White
- 2 oz bottle of Celedon
- 1 oz (I think) of Golden Open Hansa Yellow. (The Open acrylics take longer to dry, but mixed with other colors they just extend the working time a bit).
