I really love the colors in this dark skin tone, and there's no other video, photo or painting that has your skin tone palette. I'm doing a painting trying to achieve this color palette, it would really help to see the final results, thank you. Love your channel, your a great artist

    • @robinsandow9875
      @robinsandow9875 4 года назад +22

      Hue is "red versus green (and purple versus orange versus blue etc)." For clarity, let's distinguish HUE from COLOR. There are many COLORS in any given red HUE, for example in the HUE of cadmium red medium (e.g., deep brown-red versus brick-red, versus deep "hot pink" versus light pink -- all these COLORS can be in the same red HUE). You see the HUES arranged on the color wheel. Each HUE has many colors (for example, you can take a tube of ultramarine blue pigment, add various amounts of titanium white to it, and see that this particular blue HUE contains a range of light blues, a range of medium blues, a range of darker blues, etc -- many COLORS within the SAME HUE). And of course there is more than one blue HUE ("ultramarine blue" versus "cobalt blue" etc). There is more than one red HUE ("cadmium red light" versus "cadmium red medium" etc). So now let's look at the VALUE "dimension" (it's a "dimension" because it's something that can be measured). VALUE is the darkness or lightness of any COLOR, without regard to its HUE or its "chroma" (its hue saturation). For example, a pure yellow is very light. A pure purple is very dark. So they have different VALUES. (Note that they have the same "saturation" because they are both pure colors -- so although they have different VALUES, one high and the other low, they have same high "chroma;" yes keep in mind that CHROMA and VALUE are entirely different dimensions, they're independent of each other). Inside every HUE, there are different VALUES (for example, a dark brown-red COLOR has a darker value than a deep hot pink COLOR, which has a darker value than light pink COLOR). Likewise, a navy blue COLOR has a darker value than a light sky-blue COLOR. Imagine that you took a black-and-white photo of a bunch of various colors all in the same photo -- you would then clearly see their various VALUES (i.e., each color would have gray-scale "lightness or darkness" that could be clearly seen in the black-and-white photo; there is some level of gray which each color's VALUE equates to, somewhere between black and white). This finally brings us to "CHROMA" (which is the same thing as "color saturation"). Chroma is simply the amount of "pure HUE" in any COLOR. A light pink has a low chroma, i.e., a low amount of red in it. A dark grayish-pink might have the same chroma, i.e., the same small amount of red (but they would have different VALUES). A deep "hot pink" has more red in it, i.e., a higher chroma (higher color saturation). There are three measures for any COLOR: what is its HUE (what pure color can it be made from), what is it's "saturation" (CHROMA, the AMOUNT of pure hue in that particular color), and what is its VALUE (the level of darkness or lightness of that particular COLOR, without regard to its HUE or its "chroma"). Do a Google search for the Munsell color-classification system if you want to see some good diagrams of these aspects of color.

    • @robinsandow9875
      @robinsandow9875 4 года назад +8

      At 12:07 he briefly shows a diagram of a blue HUE with various blue COLORS in that HUE. Going upwards in this diagram, these various blue COLORS have lighter VALUES. Going from left to right (away from the "gray-scale"), these blue COLORS have higher CHROMAS (more color saturation).

      Victoria xo it’s possible, but I’d really recommend working with oil. Acrylic dries fast, the color usually changes after it’s dry, and it’s harder to blend.

    4:00 . Love your vid! I totally appreciate the effort. If you allow me to speak from a "begginer point of view" , i find parts of the tutorial/chat too technical and complex. We are simple in terms of trying out. May i say we prefer simple guided explanations.. Theory is fine but its way too much to take in . So if you are only try to attract more advanced artists, by all means do as you do. If you like all across the board viewers and followers. Keep it simple? For instance...
    "🔸️Dark skin...
    🔸️You mix 5 values ,
    🔸️ shadow, mid, low, highlight,
    🔸️ recipe of colors for each tone.
    🔸️How to paint technique in simple words. "
    Can you pls do one vid structured this way ???
