The Best Three Watercolors for Mixing Almost Any Color

You know that red and blue don't always make purple? Mixing colors with the wrong primaries will sometimes give you disappointing results. There are so many "primary" colors to choose from and it's confusing to figure out the best watercolors for mixing vibrant colors.
This video showcases three essential watercolors that mix just about any color you need without making a muddy color.
In celebration of World Watercolor Month, Karen Elaine sketches and paints in a watercolor sketchbook using the best three mixing colors.

Supplies used:
Pentalic Watercolor Sketchbook
Daniel Smith Quinacridone Magenta PR 202
Daniel Smith Phthalo Blue Red Shade PB 15:6
M. Graham Hansa Yellow PY-3
Alvin Draftmatic .05 mechanical pencil
Micron .03 pen

Support your local art supply store!
If you are lucky enough to live near an independent art supply store, please consider purchasing your supplies from them. The products I use in my videos should be available and if not, a knowledgeable salesperson can guide you to a suitable alternative. Most of the people who work in art supply stores are artists themselves!
If an art supply store is not available in your area, I encourage you to order online from a store that has a physical store.
Supporting your brick and mortar retailer will allow people to experience hands-on art supply exploration and education which cannot be achieved by buying online.
The unique shopping experience of brick and mortar stores can provide opportunities for the next generation to discover their own artists.
