Color Mixing Essentials: A contemporary beginner's guide to color theory and color mixing

By Jan Matěják

Color is one of the most powerful tools in painting, but it is also one of the most misunderstood. Why do colors change under different lighting? How do we actually perceive color? And how can an artist mix the right color with confidence instead of guessing?

In Color Mixing Essentials, artist Jan Matěj k guides beginners through the foundations of color theory and practical color mixing, with a focus on oil painting. You will learn how light influences color, how additive and subtractive mixing work, how to choose a useful palette, and how color harmony can support stronger, more convincing paintings.

The book also includes QR codes that link to video demonstrations, making the learning process clearer, faster, and more practical. If you are an artist or painter who wants to understand color more deeply and use it more confidently in your work, this book is for you.
