The Perfect Limited Palette for Watercolor Landscapes

Depending on how many tubes of watercolor you own, 14 might be a large number…or tiny!

After over a year of using the same 16-18 colors in my limited palette, and after hundreds of landscape paintings, it was time to make some changes.

I spent a few weeks of extensive research, mixing, and swatching to finally settle on my 14 colors.

In this video I’ll share my process and thoughts for creating my “perfect” limited palette for watercolor landscapes.
