 The importance of a good palette can't be understated. I'm a big fan of simple and consistent. I'd rather obscure the actual color and capture the light to retain the feel. Ruined a number of paintings halfway into em by experimenting with a new color.

+# Palette

+25/01/10 - Lot of opinions here. I used to have a nice off the hip understanding and feel for the palette via professors, instructors, others, study & practice. It's been twenty five years and I just found myself googling the difference between ivory and lamp black so I'm just going to note reference palettes and preferences here. 
+
+My favorite painting instructor from college had me on the only palette I ever really knew. I don't remember exactly what it was but I still have the old tubes of paint. 
+
+
+primarily these:
+- cadmium red 
+- cadmium yellow
+- ultramarine 
+- burnt umber
+- yellow ochre
+- white
+
+bigger:
+- titanium white ⚪️
+- titanium buff
+- naples yellow
+- cadmium yellow 🟡
+- yellow orchre
+- raw sienna 
+- vermillion
+- venetian rouge
+- cadmium red 🔴
+- burnt umber
+- alizarin crimson
+- ultramarine
+- cerulean
+- cobalt blue 🔵
+- veridian
+- phthalo
+- cobalt green
+- chomium oxide 
+- raw umber
+- ivory black ⚫️
