June.
Oh God of homeless things, look down
And try to ease the way
Of all the little weary paws
That walk the world

Your explanations are helpful, thank you. It reminds me of what I learned during the art seminars while I studied "Social Work" : "From Art to Design to Art". For my analogue painting, I very often use ochre tones. Natural materials and landscapes need ochre, ist makes all bright. For my analogy-painting I have the original ochres colours in 8 shades as a powder from South France. I mix them with "Gummi Arabicum". So I can use them for watercolour as for gouache/tempera and I am free to mix them with water-color-mixable oil colours.
If I have the time to paint at all. Digital painting first was very strange and difficult for me. I do not want to copy and past, but want to paint really. And I found at least in Pinterest colorsamplersets with ochre-notes which I can put into the color-wheel. But now their is no time for me to paint at all.
From time to time I try and first I have again to get familiar with the digital ArtRage. When I have dived in my time is over...
Like now.

For pure blacks, have you tried checking art supply stores? They usually stock individual shades. Mixing ochre can be tricky, but experimenting with a touch of burnt sienna might help.
