Practicing Effective Color Combinations
Welcome back to another BobBlast!
Practice makes perfect… or something like that! I just like being in the studio!
This BobBlast is all about the starting points of a painting - one of my 4 Cs that i determine before starting to paint:
What is the Concept?
What is the Composition?
What is the Color Combination?
and Staying Committed to all of the above!
To figure out your Color Combination, use a Color Wheel - It’s one of your tools in your toolbox. All of the pleasing combinations have been worked out for us! On the Standard Color Wheel, if you are just getting started, practice painting with a triadic color combination, like Red, Yellow and Blue.
Besides the Classic, or Standard Color Wheel, I use my own Goof-Proof Color Wheel - using only 4 colors… in today’s demo, you will see me practice with Holbein Acrylic Inks and white titanium.
For this Demo, here is my Color Combination:
Dominant Color is Blue
Focal Point Color is Red Yellow
Spice Color is Purple
Spice Color is Green
The dominant color blue has already been spread on the surface. The background is a loose abstract. My concept is to paint a vertical figure on top of the abstract.
So my concept is a Figure in an Abstract.
My composition is Vertical
My color combination is Blue Dominant.
After the dominant color is on the surface of the painting, I add the focal point color - as a loose figure. The spice colors are always placed near the focal point. Then I re-establish the dominant color for more contrast.
This loose painting warmup exercise gets me going early in the studio and in workshops.
Keep your brushes wet!

Bob, I really like your teaching! I've learned a lot watching you. Could you make a video on how to dispose of your "dirty" water?
Bob I got a question: Do you sell your different kind of color wheels. I find them very useful and well made. This is the first time for me to watch your practical video and I'll keep doing it. Thank you in advance.

I've just started watching your instructional videos! Thank You Thank You for breaking this down. I'm a Paper Mache and Decoupage artist and I REALLY want to (need to) start painting! I feel it in my bones! Silly question...what type of paper is it that you have on the table????
Thanks teacher!!!
I like your Color soul you are intrepid ready energy artist
Excuse my English

How did you figure out that 4 color theory and how to use them. Where did you research this combo? How did you come up with the guide? Are there other color theories out there besides Monsel theory of color that also works? Did you invent the four color theory or is it that it works for you?
This is helpful do you sell your color wheels thanks
Bob, do you ever choose black to be the focal color point?
do you sell your color wheel? Yours is the first abstract site that I can learn from and well, your art is "ME" learning abstract instead of fine art. T/you
If the dominant color is blue, why is purple there on the back ground before you started figure. Thank you
Lora Lei creates a darker value of blue, his dominant color.
How do I purchase your color wheel?
Hi, can I buy your colour wheel in UK please?
Where do I buy one
Actually, the primary colours of light are blue, red and GREEN. Blue red and yellow are the primary colours of paint.
Sadie Kane his color wheel is CYM which allows you to create any color unlike the standard color wheel.
