I am about to finish Kimon Nicholade's "the Natural way to draw" & I am also learning anatomy simultaneously. To let you know about my color sense, saying that I am color-blind would not be an understatement. To avoid monotony I also thought of starting color simultaneously. Can anyone give me any tips or any books you can suggest? Also torrent or free book links will be really appreciated.
Basically what I want to ask is what kinda tools & what approach should I use ? ( the latter being more important I guess) I have water colors & acrylic colors with me. I will buy oil too if it is required. Also, i have photoshop but I only know the basics of it.
Thanks
