In this short session I will show you how easy it is to mix your own earth colors. All you will need is the three primary colors, and white as the additional color to make some modification to values.
It doesn't matter what painting medium you prefer, oil, acrylics or something else, you'll be able to use these mixtures.
There is no need to previous experience in painting or color mixing. It is a very simple, straightforward process, which can save you money. The less colors you need to buy and the more you can mix, the cheaper it will be for you to paint.
The only important factor is to buy quality paints for your mixtures. Cheap but inferior quality paints will make it very difficult if not impossible to mix pure colors. Most of the time by mixing them you'd get muddy, brownish, greyish colors.

Viktoria K. Majestic is a classically trained, Hungarian-American fine artist, currently residing in North Carolina. She successfully taught hundreds of painting students both online and in person over the past decade. Teaching others to paint and help students succeed in painting is an essential part of her life.
Viktoria grew up in a small European town, where her interest in art and nature was formed at an early age. Her work has been largely influenced by the works of Zorn, Sorolla, Sargent, Levitan and some contemporary masters. She studied art both in Europe and in the United States, and her paintings can be found in collections throughout the world.
After graduating from college with a business degree, Viktoria established her own mural painting business, and worked as a mural and decorative artist for nearly a decade.
However after all those years, an incapacitating back problem forced her to change course.
She couldn't imagine giving up painting, so she decided to pursue an alternative art field. Traditional oil painting seemed to be the best fit, which lead her to dedicate several years to formal training in classical oil painting.
She spent four years at the Ridgewood Art Institute, receiving instructions from John Phillip Osborne & Danielle Wexler master artists, and took portrait painting classes at the Art Students League of New York with renown teachers like Leonid Gervits and Jordan Sokol.
Over the years, Viktoria has become a full time, professional artist and art instructor. She has developed a painterly “alla prima” style, while also adhering to the parameters of her classical training. Her paintings sensibly capture light, sensations and atmosphere. She has won numerous awards with her work and has exhibited at places such as the prestigious Salmagundi Club and the National Arts Club, among many others.
Viktoria is an elected member of Oil Painters of America and formerly the American Artists Professional League, where she has served as a director on the national board for 5 years.
Teaching is an integral part of her life. Many of Viktoria's students, after studying with her extensively, became successful professional artists themselves. She consider this the most significant reward a teacher can have.
