Quick color mixing tip! Here’s how I make gold in my tattoos: Deep Red for shadows, Old Gold or Caramel for mid-tones, and Lemon Drop (white with a drop of bright yellow) mixed with Old Gold or Caramel for lighter values. I use Lemon Drop instead of plain white because white dulls, mutes, and cools colors, the yellow keeps it vibrant. That’s the formula! #tattootips #tattoodesign #tattooseminar #tattooapprentice #painterlytattoos | Deanna James Tattoos
