Before I paint each color, I identify its hue, value and chroma and mix it on my palette.
Marvin,

How do you "identify" these characteristics? Are you doing it mentally as you consult your reference?

I remember reading:

First we observe, then we mix, then we test, and then we adjust. We then stay in this tight loop until we reach our goal.

Is this what you do? Is this done mentally in the blink of an eye or do you refer to a Munsell chart?
