Color Theory Review & Paint Mixing

Open your art folders and pick your favorite color palette/pattern that you've created. If you have not created one, or you do not like any of the ones you have go to...
Now print a copy of the pattern to the color pinter and cut and paste it into your journal.

yellow + violet =
black + white =

white + yellow =
white + blue =
white + orange =
white + green =
white + violet =
black + red =
black + yellow =
black + blue =
black + orange =
.... and so on....
