mekareHi everyone, hope your 2021 is full of creativity and cooperative muses!

drawesome I asked a watercolour question and maybe some of you can weigh in as well:
How do you mix skin tones in watercolour for portraits of people of colour? I am especially looking at specific colours you use. My own watercolour set is pretty small and I am looking for some useful shades to add. For Caucasian skins I bought a Naples yellow (which is more opaque than I would like and does not work so well for making several layers), I often use yellow ochre, some English red or burnt umber.
The answers in the other community lead to some nice tutorials but those don’t mention the colours people are using.
I’d appreciate any input, and of course links to your works!
