190-194: This is a perfect "flesh tone" mixture. The problem with burnt sienna, #150's above, is that the undertone is usually to cool and pink. I've added some earthy orange and yellow to give it warmth and then a touch of its' complement to keep it from getting to bright. |

480-483: This group was developed at the same time as the #190's above. It is another usful color for figure/portrait work. An earthy orange with a bit of yellow puts it between a raw sienna and a burnt sienna. |
