Todd M. Casey (Ep.24) is back and he’s here to talk about a very practical tool, the color wheel.

There are a bunch of color wheels in his new book The Oil Painter’s Handbook: A Contemporary Guide to Color Mixing, Pigments, Palettes and Harmony and for today’s mini we focus on the one that’s most relevant to painters for color mixing, the traditional subtractive color wheel. Referred to in the show as The Color Wheel.

In the conversation, you’ll learn how it’s set up, what it’s based on and then we dive into using it for color mixing.
