## What is Mixwell Watercolour?

Mixwell Watercolour helps painters make better colour decisions from the paints they already own.

Create a digital version of your palette, choose a target colour, and get suggested paint ratios with an estimated match. Use the Reference tab to pick a photo, sample colours from it, and turn those samples into practical watercolour mixes. Save useful recipes to your Mixing Book so you can come back to them later.

Features:

- Build and manage your own watercolour palette
- Browse paint colours, pigments, and characteristics
- Generate suggested two-colour mixes
- Adjust ratios and water strength
- Sample colours from reference photos
- Save recipes to your Mixing Book
- See suggestions for colours that could improve difficult matches

Mixwell Watercolour is designed as a practical studio companion. Colour matching is estimated and will vary with paper, pigment load, water, lighting, brushwork, and paint brand.
