I have tried to come as close as I could with matching the 5
basic colors of genesis paint colors to the JoSonja's colors. Since JoSonja
paints do not have the different skin tones as Genesis I have included the
JoSonja mix I use to match the genesis skin tone colors. In the skin tone mixes I have used the Jo Sonja's skin
base tone color instead of the titanium white because the white made the mix
look to chalky. I used the drop & smidgen measuring paint spoons along
with a tooth pick to measure out the colors.
5 Major Colors
Genesis
Paints
Burnt Umber Genesis Red Genesis Yellow Titanium White Ultramarine Blue |
Jo Sonja's
Paints
Burnt Umber Napthol Crimson Cadmium Yellow Mid Titanium White Ultramarine Blue with a Tad of Burnt Umber |
Skin Tone Mixes
Notes:
1. These amounts are small since they are air dry paints and I do not recommend mixing a large amount at one time.
2. I use 1 drop of sealer with the paint mix in my first layer only. Using the sealer by it's self will cause shine & the parts will become sticky. I have replaced using the sealer with Liquitex Ultra Matte Gel.
3. I use 1 part paint mix to 5-6 parts water as a thinner. I do not use acrylic thinners because they cause the paints to become shiny.
