Field notes

The interface separates a mixing table, color wheel, tint/tone/shade studies, and photo matching, with selectable oil, acrylic, watercolor, and digital modes. Its notes explain that dark mixes may use illustrative adjustments and that the physical result can vary with medium, brand, application, and lighting. The site identifies Spectral.js as its mixing model and says anonymous feedback votes do not include an account, photo, or address.
