    For those in the comments curious about colour temperature
    🔵Blues with warm undertones could be French ultramarine/ indigo (which you can mix with ultramarine and red hence it’s a warm blue)
    🔵 mid tone blue could be cobalt blue and
    🔵 my favourite cool blue pthalo blue (green shade)
    The warm blues sit closer to violets on the colour wheel and the cool blues sit closer to your blue greens on the colour wheel ⭕️

    • @loati94

      I will always find interesting how blues that lean towards violets are seen as warm but red that leen towards violet is seen as cool. No wonder there's such controversy with which blues are warm vs cool.

    I love the comparison of music theory to color theory. Since I started painting a few years ago, I find myself listening to music differently. I hear/ see it as a composition, not just "a song". Really, the same with architecture, interior design, etc. Thanks for this helpful tutorial!

    You are so incredible at explaining!! I play the piano too and your comparison to learning music theory really clicked for me. And thank you for explaining this from the very, very beginning and not assuming we know anything. You have filled in a lot of knowledge gaps for me.

    My art teacher in our community recommended watching your video and I'm finding your approach to learning color theory and painting very enlightening. Thank you so much. I would like to receive the e-book on color theory. I'm subscribing and hopefully you'll see my email. Thank you I'm learning so much. I've been painting less than 1 year

    Thank you ! your lesson is very useful if we use blue, yellow and red but I was looking for information about "how to pick the right color" among the 66 colors in my palette (Daniel Smith), I'm not sure if a color is in harmony with another 🙂is there a way to know it ?

    • @JennaRaineyChannel

      I have some recent color swatching videos that discuss how I select paint. I use MaineriBlu, but I think the videos would still be helpful. Check out my recent posts and you’ll see them. 😉

    I prefer the second too because I feel we have cameras for realism why try to compete with it. I have done the same type of exercise with animals and I find the looser they are the better. I do not think it is more advanced or better. Just like your flower in 5 strokes. It takes more skill.😊
