well as a distant plane, but can make the foreground pop. Sarah Burns and James Gurney on YouTube show it better than I can say.

M graham is a lovely studio paint, but the honey can make it somewhat goopy for travel palettes. I use mostly Daniel Smith and love them. You can add granulating medium to your m grahams, if you want. Also, Daniel Smith sells dot cards so you can try them out. (Jane Blundell, a master watercolor mixer, shows them here: https://janeblundellart.blogspot.com/2015/11/daniel-smith-try-it-dot-cards-for.html ) If you go back to my earlier palette post, those are mostly DS swatches. But I started w Van Goghs. A split primary starter set will help you learn to mix. A watercolorist has to be an artist, chemist, and physicist.
