Paint a little on your watercolor paper like I’ve started to do here. You may need a little less red than yellow because red is so dark. Mix the two together until you have orange. Then swish your brush in the water to clean it.ĭo the same with the red paint and transfer it onto the other plate across from the yellow mixture. Put the watery yellow mixture onto the other plate. Dip your brush to wet it with a little water and mix it with the edge of the yellow paint to make a watery mixture. Squirt just a tiny bit of each color of paint onto one paper plate. You will need a couple (2) shiney paper plates, a container of water, a paint brush, some watercolor paints (red, yellow, and blue), some watercolor paper, some paper towels or cloth rags.
If we mix red and blue together we get purple.
If we mix yellow and blue together we get green. If we mix yellow and red together we get orange. It takes primary colors to make secondary colors. The primary colors are red, yellow, and blue.
