Atomic and optical color mixing

ArtistAssistApp supports both atomic and optical mixing.

Atomic mixing is the physical mixing of colors together.

Optical mixing is the result of placing a transparent layer of color over another color. It is also known as the glaze technique.

By default, atomic mixing is used.

To switch to optical mixing set the bottom layer or background color.

By default, the color of the bottom layer is the paper white.

The bottom layer color can be selected using the background color picker pop-up.

Then check the "Glaze" checkbox to switch to optical mixing.

Alternatively, choose any color from the photo as the background color.

Click or tap anywhere in the photo. Press the "Three dots" button and select "Set as background".

This sets the background color and checks the "Glaze" checkbox.

To switch back to atomic mixing, uncheck the "Glaze" checkbox.

The background color will automatically change to paper white.
