Hi everyone, love Mark and his method but am getting stuck one problem.
I lay out my colours on the palette. Usually about 4 to 6 colour groups and maybe 5 to 7 colour piles for each group as you move through dark to light value.
However, I come to start painting and can't remember where each individual pile goes, particularly for skin tones.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Kind regards,
Martin. (From Melbourne, living in London.)

I'll be in Melbourne the week after next! Never been before - I hear it's beautiful.
Get all your mixed values into v small (10 ml) airtight containers. Number each light to dark.
Execute each Color group in turn. If you have mixed well, you can paint directly out of the containers, or blend half tones on the palette, warm or cool as necessary with a complementary value.
Keep the numbered lids under control with the correct containers.
No mess. Reduced effort, less chaos. Fall into bed at 3am and pick up where you left off.
