Mr. Otter Art Studio | How to use the Zorn Palette with Oil @MrOtterArtStudio | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 18 hours ago
This is a great tutorial if you are beginning to paint with oils. The Zorn palette is a minimal paint palette that uses red, fellow, black and white, instead of the usual red, yellow, and blue. In this tutorial you will learn what the Zorn palette is and how to use it. Then step by step we will paint an apple together after mixing colors, and experimenting. We will make a green using yellow and black. Who knew?!
