Cynthia, I think the direct comparison is a good thing. Tim and I both have our own way of approaching both painting and teaching. I think it will be enlightening for people to see the differences.
Alan, thanks for the compliment.
Gerri, when I first developed the palette I would mix it fresh every day. Eventually I tubed my paints to save time. Mixing the palette up is a great way to become sensitive to seeing value changes. In addition once the values are mixed out the actual painting time becomes much faster since the correct value has already been achieved. Only hue and chroma need to be arrived at. If there are no air pockets in the tube it should last indefinitely.
Thanks John. You are a great example of what I'm saying here.
Mike, thanks for your insight.
