Mike,
After taking Marvin's workshop, and practicing his palette tons, I started tubing. I would say it takes a beginner at least two hours to mix just his skin tone palette, because he breaks down the neutrals, yellow ochres, warm and cool reds into 9 different values, so tubing made sense. But it is only a process of mixing certain colors together - it does not involve any filler oils, mediums or dry pigments. That would be way too much chemistry for me!
I don't know how I survived the mixing every two days, I go nuts spending the twenty minutes putting the paint on my palette right now - ADHD!
