Why I Use Three Pinks in My Watercolour Palette (And How I Use Each One) Get brushes and signed copies of my books here! https://dewintonpaperco.etsy.com Pink is often dismissed as a novelty colour in watercolour, but for me it plays a very practical role in my palette. In this video I’m sharing how I use the three different shades of pink I keep on my palette, and what each one brings to my colour mixing and painting process. I talk through how each pink behaves, the kinds of subjects I use them for, and how they help me create warmth, softness and subtle colour variation without overpowering a painting. I’ll also share why I prefer having these ready-made pinks rather than always mixing from reds, and how they contribute to a more cohesive, intuitive palette overall. If you’ve ever wondered whether pink deserves a place in your watercolour palette — or how to use it without everything feeling overly sweet — I hope this video gives you a few ideas and a bit of confidence to experiment. Let me know in the comments: do you use pink straight from the pan, or do you mix it when you need it? 💗 Become a Youtube member!
