    These tutorials always show up in my recommendations out of nowhere, and they somehow always turn out to be just that one thing that my art lacked completely. It's a miracle.

      If you want a very indepth and specific solution to this problem I recommend looking for Bill perkins course videos online, eh explains how to key your hue, saturation and value so they dont get all mixed up.

    Ok, this is a game changing thing, i have been wondering for many months and trying to understand how it works "local value" is the answer. Great video with really great explanation!

    Thank you for spending your time to create this video! Very professional, I sort of knew about this but it's very hard to nail it down while having to control all the other variables, hue, light edges, shapes, it can get a little overwhelming if you're trying to master it all. Thanks once again!

    Value is much more about getting the lighting right than about specific colors. Obviously, colors matter a lot. But with the incorrect notion of how lighting, atmosphere, “mood” and texture work, it can turn out a mess. Anyway, great video. Subject that goes unnoticed most of the times by many artists.

  • @MsLilly200

  • @zazoreal5536

    Tip for artists here: It is simply once you get it. The main thing you should always keep in mind is High contrast moves forward in space and low contrast moves backward. There is of course more than just that like Dark objects move forward and Light objects move backward. It is important to increase the value range of each object as well. Try and stay away from flat value ranges. Once you can Maximize your value structure, you can prune it back to you style of painting.

    • @sparta117corza
      @sparta117corza 6 лет назад +26

      you worded this really strangely, what I think you meant to say was things become more de-saturated as they move back in space, which is only particularly important when it comes to landscape scenes or when you want to separate your foreground, middle ground and background. the reason they become more or less saturated is simply because of the atmosphere, this can vary depending on the weather ie fog, smoke, clear day.
      not really relevant to this video because we where only talking about value and not Hue and Saturation... you might have been confusing this contrast with he fact that things that are not in the focal point are not meant to have much contrast in paintings because you don't want the focus to be your background... or maybe you do? thats all down to how you plan your painting.

  • @kathryngintherstein3449
    @kathryngintherstein3449 2 года назад +6

    I started painting just over 1 year ago at age 63. (No art training what so ever). I am struggling with the concept of value. I did not comprehend this video but I watched it to the end. I think an art student would understand better than myself. I am guessing that the problem with the three beautiful sketches is that they did not have enough contrast in the shading of the drawing in order to help depict the different materials in the drawing?

    • @GressaHorses
      @GressaHorses 8 месяцев назад

      hello there! :) I'm not sure if you still need help, but I'll try to explain from what I understood :) he explained that the flat pictures had the same value, the same color for every material that should have different colors and textures. for example, the picture with the apple and jar and the cup, the midtone for the apple should be different than the jar's, so the shadow and light would also be different with the jar. with the houses, the doors should have a different value than the walls, the roof should have a different value than the walls and door! every material should have a different value, and, consequently, the shade and light values should also be different! take this with a pinch of salt, since it's what I understood but I may be wrong! ☺️

    9/14/29 USA Grandpa Bill: This is the best voice sound system I've heard on RUclips. In my headphones, your voice is clear and strong. This is good. I appreciate the value comparisons. I can use my copier to make a copy of the colors in test, to see how they line up in value. This has proved helpful. Also, studying the old black and white movies: years ago (I'm 71 now) I could tell what colors there were from the shades of gray. It came with experience. I seem to have forgotten a lot, and now I can see that some colors could be misinterpreted as the result of value. Also, pencil sketches are worth the effort in determining value since the foregrounds must be darker and then within the drawing different elements have to be strengthened in tone to stand out. Thank you for this video and your effort.

    i guess the lower painting is to be colored afterwards which is then done with lighter and darker colors which bring the different values .. its basically like the lighting and ambient occlusion pass from a 3d render

    Luminosity Layer is very helpful in this matter! So you paint everything with a flat default value, then in a new layer you can paint with luminosity and on top of that add shadows and highlights :). Great video!

    • @hendrix5757
      @hendrix5757 6 лет назад +2

      I'm confused about what exactly you're suggesting because the comment wasn't specific enough. I'm aware of Luminosity maps made by placing a new layer at the top of an image that's filled with black or 50% Grey, and then changing the blending mode to color in order to effectively judge the values. Is that the same process you were describing?

    how about "grouping your values" and "keeping values minimal 3-5 tonal values". I personally think that the mistake especially in the center bottom image is that the foreground house's value is as the same as the house behind it (midground).

    @philosophyfrog2653 5 лет назад +2

    I believe you're just assuming they're trying to achieve a finished black and white image however the reason why a lot of artists prefer to paint black and white images without base colour value is because they prefer to paint in photoshop using gradient maps. This helps the artist to more accurately render the occlusion before moving on to light, cast shadows and colour.

  • @astrosaurus7021
    @astrosaurus7021 4 года назад +1

    My problem is that within an object/subject, I'll give each material its own value range, but then I have trouble making it stand out from the background elements, because the subject itself has so much contrast and so many different values that it merges into the background values. Generally, I try to keep subject, background, foreground, etc. in their own general value ranges but sometimes it's hard to have them not share similar values. How could I avoid this?
