As part of the Liz Steel watercolour course I created a colour preference mood board to make sure the colours I was attracted to, were in my palette, or could be mixed from the colours in my palette.

Continuing with a new week from the 2026 run through of Liz Steel’s watercolour course by doing the swatching exercises for four of our favourite colour mixing combinations.

Kicking off a new run through of Liz Steel’s watercolour course by doing the first exercise, to create a swatch grid of every colour in my urban sketching palette in a watery wash, a juicy wash, and a pasty wash.
