Mixing the paint is a very good training, but I would not spend two whole hours every day on it.
I believe that Marvin said, in his post about his palette, that he have tubed all his values of Neutral Gray, Yellow Ocher, Venetian Red and Indian Red.. to save that time for painting in stead.
I have bought some 40 ML tubes and am going to mix and tube three of the values of each color, value 3, 5 and 7 on the 9 value scale. That will save a lot of time and I can easily mix the rest of the values, from these, when I need to.
I think that having them in tubes will be more economic since you can squeeze a bit out at a time.
I do not add drying medium to the mixtures before I have to use the colors. Then I take a bit of the paint with the knife and place it a little aside the place and mix dryer into it.
