Day Twelve 01/12/17 "Thirty Paintings In 30 Days"
Today my color for my color charts is Winsor Violet (Dioxazine) made by Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Colour in France. It is a transparent color in the violet family. It is a vivid mid-shade purple. It's pigment or Color Index (C.I.) is PV23. It has a Permanence Rating of A and is a Series 2 color, costing about $10-12 for a small 37ml tube.
Windsor Violet has a value of 2 on the Value Scale where white is 10. It is intense and has a chroma of 10. It has a blue color bias.
In doing today's charts, I took the Winsor Violet (Vio) and placed it by itself in the first top square. I then tinted it by adding Titanium White for 4 additional values below this top square.
Next, in the second column, I mixed my Winsor Violet (Vio) with all my other individual colors in a ratio of 75% Violet and 25% of the next color, like Ultramarine Blue Deep (UMB-D). I then added white to this mixture for 4 additional values. I did this with all my 21 colors.
Windsor Violet made gorgeous mixtures of a variety of violets, blues and a few browns. It will also be very useful in making deep blacks or the darks in my paintings.
