THIS IS NOT COLOR THEORY
It is the palette behind real, finished paintings, opened up. For every portrait, I show you the exact tube mixes I used, where each color goes on the face, and how to build it. The knowledge that usually takes years at the easel to earn, laid out so you can use it tonight.

HOW TO READ A RECIPE
THE EXACT MIXES, PER PAINTING
THE PAINTING IT CAME FROM
WHO IT IS FOR
For the painter who can draw a face but watches the skin turn to mud on the palette. If you have mixed and re-mixed and still ended up grey, chalky, and lifeless, this is the shortcut you have been missing: proven recipes, taken straight from paintings that already work.
WHY TRUST IT
I am Uri Shavit, a classically trained oil painter. For over twenty years I have taught skin
tones - to a YouTube community of more than 130,000 painters and in my own studio.
These are not recipes I invented for a book. They are the exact mixes behind the paintings
on these pages.
There is no such thing as "skin color." There is a skin tone, and it can be mixed - from a small, honest palette. This book is that idea made concrete.

QUESTIONS
WILL IT ACTUALLY HELP MY SKIN TONES?
If your flesh goes grey, muddy, or chalky, yes. Every recipe is a proven mix from a finished painting - a starting point that already works. Mix it, hold it against the swatch, and adjust by eye.
ARE THE MIXES REALLY FROM YOUR PAINTINGS?
Yes. Every color is sampled straight from the finished painting shown on the plate - the same mix, on the same spot. This is the palette behind the work, not generic theory.
WHAT PAINTS DO I NEED?
A short universal palette (Michael Harding and Winsor & Newton, Series 1), or any comparable oils. Match the color, not the label.
WHAT FORMAT IS IT?
A downloadable PDF, designed for a computer or iPad screen, not a phone. Instant download after purchase.
DOES IT CONTAIN NUDITY?
Two of the six plates are classical figure studies.
CAN I PRINT IT OR SHARE IT?
Print it for your own studio use. It is a personal-use license, so please do not redistribute or resell.
