In this vid I'll show you how to simplify the values!
We will do this using something a little different - for each layer we'll try using ONE color, and perhaps mix another one gently into it.
But mostly - every layer will have one dominant color.

This removes any worry related to which color to choose - as we already chose one inn advance, and stuck to it!

I hope you'll find it useful 😊🙏🏼
