    First time visitor to your channel. Great content, and I'm excited to try the overwash technique. However, I had to watch it several times to figure out the mixes because sometimes you call the 6 primaries "lighter and darker" instead of "cooler and warmer" and never use pigment names (eg lemon yellow) after the intro.

    • @DonAndrewsAWS
      @DonAndrewsAWS  11 месяцев назад

      Hi CastleMc,,,,, thank you for your input,,, you are putting your finger on one of the negatives in doing live painting demonstrations, namely trying to paint and talk (and make some sense) at the same time! Go to my website, donandrewsstudio.com, then to the video section, scroll down to color harmony(not the title, martha gives the videos come on titles)there's a colorful church on the thumbnail, this video is free to watch and it give you a better idea of my color selections and why,,,more to come!

    Hi Don. Lived the exercise. To me was mind-blowing. So, if I understood correctly we can cool or warm our watercolor mixings by adding cooler or warmer paint!!! If so, my question is if that goes for every color mixing? Not only grey? right?????

    • @DonAndrewsAWS
      @DonAndrewsAWS  11 месяцев назад

      Hi Cristina,,, thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, you are 100 per cent correct, this color temperature concept is so unnecessarily confusing,,,, all blues are visually cool, there is no such thing as a warm blue that you see as warm paint,,,, Ultramarine blue is a good example,it is referred to as a warm blue,why? Because it has a touch of Magenta in it, a cool red has a touch of Thalo blue in it,,,a warm green has more yellow,a cool green has more blue,,,etc,,,,Hope this helps! Friend Don
