Hello and welcome to The Gold Coast Art School channel!

We're on a roll with our colour mixing series! This week, Stephen shows you how to mix grey (aka: gray for our American friends!) This particular shade of grey is a mid-tone, with a green tinge. Understanding the undertones of colours can help when mixing. This can take time to develop, but start by asking yourself "Is this a warm, or a cool toned colour". This will help inform the types of reds, yellows, and blues that you use.
