I am struggling with my acrylic paints, trying desperately to get some nice bright red colour.
I have some magenta, some yellow, some orange and others, but not a ready to use paint the right colour.
I tried making mixes of yellow plus magenta plus a very little black, but the best i could get was some brown.

:mad:

Can someone tel me what i do wrong????

The paints I use are very good quality: these are Lefranc & Bourgeois paints.

Beary hugs,
Sophie.

Buy a tube of Cadmium Red :-)
Red's one of the primary colors - you can't make it by mixing.
