This is the paint I used numbered from the darkest value (1) to the lightest value (5). The only reason that the #5 value jumps to become so light is because the cloth is white. Without a "white" object in the painting, I would have used a much darker value than this.

Again, the mixture is raw umber + titanium white mixed to the five values shown. Oftentimes I pre-mix my values so that I am not tempted to change them. The piles of paint are displayed below on a white paper palette.
